Default Just got done with brakes rotors ect.

I was wondering if there was a way to get the 2 bolts on the back of the rotors tighter. I got them as tight as I was able to but was unable to get a torque wrench under there. I was wondering if there was any tool that would help me or should I just go to a local shop. I used a 90psi air gun aswells on the bolts. They r a bitch to get off! thank god I had that.

I lifted the front of the car about 2 feet, came at them from the front of the car then used a snipe on my longest driver extension, got them real tight, you're right they are a bitch to get off

yah dude hahah it was soo freaking hard! Your suppose to use a special tool but it can be done by hand obviously. I was doing my job on cones that is prob why it was a little harder. I will just double jack it as high as I can and try to get under there. Either that or just get it done when when i get my tie rob ends replaced and cvboot. I have never seen that much dirt hahha Inside of the tire BLACK. Ohhh slotted rotors were cheap 220(pair) LOOK AMAZING, aswell I got the HPS pads. I will try to get some pics this week. Stopping power is 20 times better... from 110-0 AMAZING with only pushing 1/4th of the brake! I would have to say breaking in the brakes were fun aswell... SMOKE EVERYWHERE!!! haha thx for the help nothing77


P.S. Do not get mch A/S pilot sports.... after 10k miles I am already looking at new tires in 2-5k miles
