I'm running the wilwood disc's with green bearings. With any rear disc you can't use the old tapered bearings. I think you must use green bearings that are with the snap ring. Which in think is MO400, not the RP400. I know this as I had the wrong ones when I put my disc's on.
And you can't use the 8 3/4 a body axels that are redrilled as the kits are set up for the axel offset of 2.3.

I used it and it worked fine. Just remember to shim using the washers provided to center the caliber over the rotor. The only problem I had was the lug holes were about .030 too small. I had to drill them out but I did have after market axles with long shank studs.

Good advice on the centering!!

I used standard studs and had to drill the wilwood disc's out as well. I'm running Yukon axles in mine.
