    Picked mine up at CarQuest, Napa should have them also. But they are stock length.

    Thanks for the tip on front, how hard was it to drill the rotors?

    the rotors arent that bad to drill the out the material for the larger knurl studs.I just didnt want to drill my axles out as there not as easy to replace as the rotor:rofl2:

    the size of the knurl doesn't matter as long as it is bigger than the orginal hole...the trick is to get the correct size drill bit and then don't let it oversize the hole. do it in a drill press if possible...:thumbs2:
