Default brake conversion

i work at NAPA and have checked my resources for doing a big brake conversion, the gen 2 rotors are 12.4 inches compared to 12.7 on the supra tt rotors, so, i can get all the parts for a conversion (including lower ball joints) for about 490.00 plus tax
rotors=67.00 each
calipers=55.00 each
ball joints=76.00 each
pads=36.00
hoses=35.00 each
this is because of my employee discount, the rotors will not be slotted or drilled, no big deal though

If you plan to use 2LS caliper, make sure you got the 2LS lower ball joint to clear the caliper.
