    Yep yep! It will be hard to know then how much of a difference the lines made because the calipers are going in at the same time but it will surely be a massive upgrade on the crappy GQ brakes!
    Will be all ready for Licola next weekend =]

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    Well the twin piston calipers showed up today with matching bolts and rotors.
    They're getting put on tomorrow as well as the safebrake braided brake lines and a full service of the brake system... Woohoo can't wait!

    Yeah mate gq brakes are crap and mime have seen better days anyway, plus our camper trailer does not have brakes and it was cheaper to do this upgrade than put brakes on the trailer.
    Eventually I'll get brakes on the trailer and there'll be no stopping me! Or... There will! Haha

    How much are you being charged for the rebuild if you don't mind me asking?
    Cheers
