I'm sure all one would need is the CAD file to take to a machine shop and have the bracket made. No need for you to go through that trouble.


Off topic: Did you ever do anything with those traction bars?

Hey guys! Hey Ram congrats on the turbo Article way to represent!!! My friends are in AWE!!! Anyways, need ya'll's opinions.
I currently run those slotted and drilled front rotors from a group buy from 2 years ago. Have had good braking performance with no probs.
I use axxiss MM front and rear.
Now the issue. I have an annoying squeal when braking. I've changed out the pads even tried a set of Raybestos performance pads. Still getting the squeal. Do I need to change out my rotors?

Extremely back from the dead bobby. That sounds like it would have been an awesome set up though.

How exactly do u go about doing this, is it just plug and play or something needs to be done before and what year Legend are you taking about because i think my calipers need to be replaced

I currently use frozen powerslot rotors with HPS pads. no warping so far but a lot of brake dust and squealing.

The pads are probably causing the dust and noise since they are a compound pad as opposed to the ceramic OEM pads, which are recommended for replacement. I think I have the same rotors and a different type of hawk pad, no problems with dust or squealing.
