That's pretty impressive.

I just finished replacing rotors, calipers and pads on the back. Fronts still have an incredible amount of life though, considering they've been doing all the work.

It should be mentioned that I have never driven this vehicle on the road. Legally anyways.

Nah, the rivets haven't been used to help in the stopping process yet.

Make sure you grease those rotors thoroughly so the pads slide easily on them. Would hate to have to waste money on new pads from lack of grease!
