I believe  his site state you get a shopping list to be filled at your local big box store...I do not think there is any way he can buy the rotors and calipers himself and pass a savings on to you in doing so and on top of that you have to pay shipping from his place.....

Your stock 15" wheels may not fit with the Scarebird kit.  My stock 15" wheels fit with Rusty Hope's (olddaddy's) kit.  There was a thread not too long ago where the stock 15" wheel didn't fit on a Scarebird kit, had to order new wheels.

I emailed him and he will not share any info unless you buy his kit.

and if you were running a business such as this, neither would you!   With all due respect, you state you wish to do your own work...well, here is your chance...start crunching the data of all the rotors out there or visiting the junkyard measuring this or that till you come up with a setup that will work, be safe and relatively easy to install.  So if as you state you wish to do this on your own...then what need would you have of data from those make the kits?  Sorry, but I do not think that any of the other companies will give up their component list either.   Just a matter of economics...

I can’t recall the year but I believe they were Volare. There was a mix and match of bearings and an adapter to make it all work. It’s all listed clearly in Olddaddy’s parts list. Won’t work without his adapter. Very happy and has been problem free for years now. I think it’s worth the couple hundred bucks to purchase a proven kit, and I like to engineer my own stuff but sometimes it’s better to purchase.
