Default FS: C4 Front Brake Cooling Ducts

Sold!

These mount to the knuckles using the bolts that hold the hub bearing on. They were on my '94. I think they fit 89-96. I am including replacement hub bearing bolts and all of the washers, nuts, etc. that were necessary to get them at the right depth for C5 front rotors. These are cut to fit with the C5 front brake adapters (also available).

$100 shipped.







Here they are mounted on the car. Should give you a good idea on how to mount them.

Would there be any issues running the stock J55 setup?

No. You would probably need to adjust them for the correct depth to match your rotors. You would do this by adding or removing washers on the hub bearing bolts.

Here is how the bolts work. Slide the bolts in from the back side of the knuckle. Slide the hub bearing on. Install the dark colored nut and torque down to factory specs. This holds the hub on. You will now have extra threads sticking out, which is what you use to adjust and install the ducts, all while keeping the hub bearing bolted on properly.

Also, you would likely have a larger gap where the plates meet your calipers than what I had. The bigger the gap, the more air can escape through it instead of going through your rotor vanes.
