Yep, but if you have the roller skates (i.e. stock pads still installed) then you need to take the wheel off. As I don't believe the roller skates can clear the wheel.

Really? So I can just pop the wheels off and yank the roller skates and pads off and replace them without having to remove the calipers? I didn't know that.

except the black piece is a much cheaper metal spring and the two screws are pins. Use a punch to remove the pins. use a wood clamp to compress the caliper and the pads slide right out the top.

Offer I'm referring to some other stuff, not the intake........ call me and I will give you more details Quick update: Note: the arrow pointing to the hole were the rivet will go doesn't have anything to grab to. The concave channel is were the battery cable use to run through. If we left it like this, it would look unfinished. So the domino effect starts begin!!! I figure we might as well cut the whole channel out and make it symmetrical like the other side. Made a template..... welded the new filler plate ..... Heck, why not get rid of the seam while we are at it More welding And skim coat. still need a little more work. Did I say I HATE body work!!! What the hell, we might as well do all the spot welds while we at it..... I though I had taken more progress picture of were we left off but I guess we got caught up in the moment. So stay tune for more. . |

LOL,
This nifty tool allowed for the removal of the seem sealer in seconds. Justin is cleaning up the area were we will be welding the plates on to the floor to build the rest of the cage. Finished the bumpers...... |

Those bumpers are really interesting looking! What do they weigh compared to the stock bumper?
