It was my pleasure to put the brake kit together for you. What you forgot to mention is the kit cost $400 plus less than Wilwood and uses better parts where it really counts!

Control Arms Sandblasted and painted. New Afco bushings and balljoint pressed in. Came out nice.
And here is the new upper balljoint installed. I actually removed it and installed it though the top instead of through the bottom like in the picture. I wasn't sure about the torque on the bolts that hold the ball joint in and after doing a little research people are doing between 10 and 20 lbs so I torqued them down to 15 lbs. I hope that's ok :-?
And the final Install

John,
that is incorrect on the balljoint. it goes in the top, torque is more like 8#, Please swap those around asap
