    navy------don't you have a quick change rear end in that car??? Those brakes are for c clip type axles only and your q change isn't that type rear- the clip axles can move in or out a little so calipers can squeese disc evenly-with your set up they can't do that

    That's a new one on me. I've never heard that there are calipers that require the rotor to "float" between the pads in order to work right. Can you explain and give examples?
