Re: Fastfreddys 454ss

Ran into another problem. When I ordered my front disc kit from AZ properformance. I decided not to order the kit with the $95 stainless steel brake line kit ( that comes with the correct banjo bolt) because I just replaced my factory front brake lines. So I didn’t get brake line banjo bolt. I though I could just use my stock one off my truck.Turns out they are a different size. Doesn’t say anything about this in the instructions.I had to go to 2 parts stores to get dorman 14100s (10x1.0x20) banjo bolts.the dorman are 27mm long, so I’m going to cut them down to 20mm. The left ones are factory and the the right ones are the dormans that are to long.

Re: Fastfreddys 454ss

I want more performance out of my front pads, then the sport brake pads supplied by Baer brakes that came with the kit. So I ordered a set of ebc yellow stuff organic pads and red stuff ceramic pads. Not sure which one I will pick. Then I will match the backs.

While I was under the front. I noticed the sway bar bushings were a little cracked and worn out. So I Put in Energy Suspension 3.5178R 1 1/4 greasable sway bar set
