    Learned a hard lesson tonight:
    ALWAYS DOUBLE CHECK YOUR PART NUMBERS AGAINST VARIOUS YEARS OF LIKE MODELS.

    For example:
    I ordered cross drilled and slotted rotors and ceramic brake pads from a reputable website. Looked them up by my year, make and model. Found what I wanted and ordered. Couple days later items shows up. BOOM!
    In my excitement, I decide to do front wheel bearings while I'm in there, so I start with those. Get the bearings changed, go to bolt the new rotor on.........


    The rotors don't line up with the mount holes.......... :frusty:
    Do some research... Come to find out reputable website listed the same part number for a '96 model (mine's a '95, different gen). I look at the '94s, different part number (the one I need... Argh!!!)

    From now on I'll check the '94 part numbers when ordering online... :mad:
    Luckily, this website has a great rep with customer service. I sent an email... now we wait again...

    :smack:

    You are supposed to get plates with them. Did the support triangles come pre welded? Mine didn't.

    Should have come with the plates.
    I've seen them come with and without the gussets already welded.

    This is exactly how I picked them up from Con-way. I was supposed to get some of the CMC plates as well. They weren't even wrapped up. I have no idea if they were shipped just like this or Con-way unwrapped them for me. Needless to say Jerry already has an email in his inbox.

    Putting the RTT together now. My drill shit the bed, so as soon as I can borrow one to drill the track rail holes on the rack I can throw the sucker on and be rolling.

    If I had parking, it'd be on!! Most I can fit is like two trucks and that's one in the street :goingcrazy: I'll be running to that side of the water if you need to borrow my drill Jake, I would also like to check the tent out so I can decide if I really need a RTT from this GB.

    I am also doing homework. :pout:
