I thought Todd's kit was 11.75" in the rear . Are you running another type set? I need the absolute largest rotors on the planet available for the contour. Thanks...

It is. That's not something I built. Its looks pretty nicely done from here. If that 1/2 is the ticket then there's your solution.

Now I'll guess your next question is "can you do yours in 12.2 as well?" The answer is yes. With proper payment of redesigned brackets and a minimum run of them. Off the top of my head I'd gues another $125 for programing, some plates, plating and such.

No that is not correct. I currently only offer the 11.75 rotor kit. IT retains the parking brake. Perhaps in the future when Wilwood finalizes the new rear caliper they have been working in we can consider an opposed caliper with parking brake. Won't be cheap though. And you'll need to fab cables.

I hate to say it but I 'could' prob slot both sets of holes about .300 and pull it off. But the firt time it slipped and the caliper was grinding on the rotor...well, my phone would be ringing. No thanks, new laser brackets are much better.
