    to do the big brakes you need
    16" or larger wheels
    96-02 spindles
    98-02 hub bearings
    92-94 civilian upper control arms
    92-94 upper ball joints
    96-02 lower ball joints
    98-02 calipers and brackets
    98-02 rotors and pads
    98-02 brake hoses
    std to metric adaptors for the front hoses

    How do I convert the STD to metric like you advised? Are they adapters? Can I get them from a parts house?

        you want 79-94 lower control arms otherwise you will possibly end up buying two es bushing sets.......95-02 lower arms will fit but both the lower arm bushings the same size unlike the older arms with two different sized bushings in each arm
