So you're telling me you got 2 FRONT brembo calipers, pads, rotors and hardware for only $1240? That's amazing!

Why are the BBK's so much more expensive than the OEM versions?

The previous gen Jeep SRT8 calipers are only about $383 each. I wonder if they bolt up as well? Only problem is they are black: http://www.trademotion.com/parts/200...CALIPER%20ASSY They don't have the 2012 SRT8 calipers listed though!

they do not bolt up....I have a gen1 SRT Jeep and the bolt spacing is different and would require adapters. The gen1 Brembos are 4.5" vs. the gen2 brembos 5.5"...which is the same as the durango. The gen2 6 pistons are CHEAPER anyway. I got my gen2 brembo 6 pistons, rotors and spash shields from justforjeeps.com

no idea why the BBK's are so expensive...I guess vendor markups etc.

I saw a 2012 Jeep SRT8 the other day and the Brembos are huge and stick way out. Are you sure your WK1 rims will clear?
