I ordered some Wagner TQs from and received them the very next day with standard shipping, very satisfied, and the pads perform great.

While I had it apart I took the time to paint my calipers, front steering knuckles, and rear disk drums. I sanded them with 300 grit, used a wire brush on the steering knuckles followed up by a 300 grit sanding. I used VHT caliper cleaner for the final cleaning and adhesion promotion, VHT red caliper paint on the caliper, front caliper brackets, and the ends of the caliper brackets in the rear, and some Rustolium 1200 temp flat black paint for the rear drums and steering knuckles, and I stealed it all with Rustolium gloss clear.














Not the best aftermath photos but the weather currently sucks and I'm not up to getting all photographic.

 

looks great man!

 

Good job brotha, it looks great. i been wanting to take on this project for awhile

 

Looks good! I have had a caliper paint kit sitting in my garage for months now. I need to do it but can't get motivated. This helps though that sure adds a nice touch!

 

Looks great Darren... trying to decide on what color to do mine.

 

Those wheels look really nice. A definite contrast between the black wheels, and the red calipers. Did you also replace the neoprene rubber guides around the mounting bolts?.
I'm going to have my new rotors slotted by a machine shop before I have my calipers painted.

 

Looks really good man, painted mine yellow not all that long ago

 

damn i might have to do mine when i get Fiddy back :o

 

Thank you everyone.


PTM!


Thank you. No I just cleaned them up a bit.

 

Looks good!

I'd do mine, but you can't even see them with the stockers!

 

I need to get out and do the wifes truck, she ain't gonna do them

 

Came out great!

 

That VHT caliper paint will last too. I did mine when I first bought the truck in 05 and they still looked good up till I put my caliper covers on this year.

Nice job man

 

Looks great Darren

 

Looks great but a true PTM would have been even better?
