On Tuesday night I installed my ART rotors and pads. The whole process took me 5 1/2 hours. I decided to bleed the brakes while I was at it. The front caliper bolts were hard as hell to get off. The rear ones came off with a little muscle.
I've only got about 70 miles on them now so I haven't gotten on them until they're broken in. But so far there's a world of difference! The only thing that I'm a little worried about is that there was no anti-squeak compound for the brake pads. Did anybody put anti-squeak compound on?
Anybody know of a stainless steel brake line kit for the excursion?
Next step is the rear swaybar |

No anti-squeak compound on mine -- they did squeak for the first few miles but it went away fairly quickly.
