I I looked at that part number and according to the catalogs that I have that is a truck part #. Doesn't look like I can offer much help. I was hoping maybe just a matter of the wrong kit. I looked at the list of parts and according to my catalog the calipers look to be the only difference which seems odd to me ...... I thought they were the same (Different size it says) . Says offset on rotors is the same and so on...... I'm not sure ......? Wish I could be more help.

Thanks, I thought so to when I first opened the kit. The directions where so small I had to wear my glasses to read them. I called today and left Jeff a message. Will see what happens which I don't look for anything to happen really. I just know I want recommend the kit to anyone.I'll go buy the grade 8 bolts and have the drivers side spacer turned down to fit and do some more system bleeding and hope they work out OK.

Can you believe this! I get a letter back from some women at CPP saying they had talked to Van and he said I had been taken care of! I haven't had nothing done then I get a e mail from them wanting me to buy more parts from them on their website.
I called and talked to this Guy Van. He apoligized for the problems and said I was sent the wrong derictions. They are sending me a T shirt and he said the T bolts are grade 8.

Update on mine.

I called and talked to Arron yesterday and he sent me a new updated brake procedure for adjusting the brakes. I now have parking brakes and regular brakes but I do need to bleed them again. It says you don't always have to but my light will come on with a hard stop. So I'll bleed them again next week when I do the longer studs for the 1/4" spacer's on the rear wheels for fender clearance.

PS: before adjusting the brakes make sure the park cable is good and tight!
