[QUOTE="Zeusmotorworks, post: 1837032, member: 22315"] [U]Quick Look at OE Rotors[/U] Wish I'd have taken pics of both sides of both OE rotors. However, I'm tired and not interested in unpacking the OE parts I put away. In this pic you can see some of the hot spots acquired with the OE setup. I believe the other driver's side was worse. Seriously this was a couple cases of coming off the tollway and someone suddenly "NEEDING" to be in front of me. [ATTACH type="full" alt="B9C7F5DA-978E-41EB-BE2A-EE481678149E.jpeg"]376029[/ATTACH] [U]Install and notes[/U] According to Alcon, you will need the following tools: • 10mm allen wrench • 8mm allen wrench • 13/16 socket • 13mm socket • 10mm wrench • 8mm wrench Torque specs are: Front 184 lb ft for bracket to spindle/knuckle 81 lb ft for bracket to caliper 26 lb ft for brake line banjo bolt Rear (pending) I didn't use the 8mm allen to my recollection, but I did add a couple torque wrenches, Motive pressure bleeder, pry bar, rubber mallet and brake piston spreader. As you can see the supplied caliper mount bracket bolts thread from the inside. They are not side specific but do only bolt on one way. "Disc" is engraved in the side that should be facing out.

This was to keep the disc from chaffing the line.
