Re: 9bolt with C5 calipers

Hey, if you are working with Ed Miller, you don't need any other help. I worked through the front and rear brake upgrade with Ed a couple years, maybe more, ago. Brakes have not been a problem and the install was easy. The only difficulty I had was the rear driver side with the brake line. The welded on lower control arm relocation bracket makes it a tight fit when you bleed the brakes, but it works. Ed is a good guy.
