So I picked up a sweet deal on eBay... I got 13" Zinc washed cross drilled/vented rotors and a Wilwood front brake conversion... for about $710 (incl. shipping) Right time right auction...

Funny thing is that I always thought it was Wildwood, instead of wilwood... hahaha...ehem

So I finally got back into the garage tonight.... I cut out a rotted part of the Pax rocker to find that that is really the only part on the rocker that is bad...The good news about that is that it will be a whole lot less work than replacing the entire rocker... the bad news is that I wasted $80 or so on a replacement rocker that I bought... it will cost less to keep it than it will be to ship it back to Goodmark and the restocking fee... So I'll just cut out the part that I need and use that as a replacement for the part that I cut out... I may be able to use part of it on the back side of the rocker too...
