Default Sidewinder Custom brakes done

I did get the brakes done,Some of you know I got some brakes from GS ....Total shet

I got some parts from Darren at www.sidewindercustoms.com to finish the install,Installed an a bit of driving to see how they work
The pedal is up higher,Stopping distance is shorter,Not a thing bad

Yead man I always wanted to get brembo brakes but I never did because I couldn't find one that fit. As we all know the stock brakes on these durangos suck. I will upgrade in time. as far as the rear did you have to ta the rear end completely apart to install the brakes?

Cool

I call foul. I think that all the photos are photoshopped and not real. 16 posts? This guy isn't for real.
