  • 3rd gen brakes

    hey guys ..
    any chance any of you would have pictures of the front/rear brakes on a 3rd gen. I am looking to see how they are supported and what the various pieces are. I am hoping to install the calipers but not sure the mounting points and what if any brackets I am missing.

    thanks..

    On the front the brakes are supported by two claw looking things off of the spindle. On the back they are bollted to a bracket that is boolted to the axle housing. The rear is almost exactly the same as the 4th gen. Looks similar to this

    here is kinda the front.
