Just sit back and relax. CJ will take a long long time to get them to you. It took mine at least a few weeks to get shipped.

Some divine power does not want me to complete this project.
I finally got the parts, was halfway thru the install today and realized that the caliper brackets were not in the box from Baer. When I first opened the box, I thought the relocation brackets were the only things needed. That is until I got the stock bracket bolted up to the relocation bracket and the pads hung halfway off the rotor.
Very frustrating!

Finally! Thanks to Rick @ Baer who sent my missing caliper anchors right away with 2-day shipping.
I decided against going two tone with the calipers, instead going with all black. I was not happy with the way the two tone caliper came out.
Here are the rotors. They are huge!
Stock vs. 14" rotor
Stock brakes
Intermediate bracket that comes with the kit...installed onto spindle
Rotor installed
Caliper bracket/anchor with pads installed
Caliper installed
End result:
While driving normally, I noticed increased bite due to the Hawk pads but nothing overwhelming. You can really feel the difference when you get on the brakes hard.
