Here's the install points
1. take off wheel
2. take off rear caliper
3. remove rotor
4. gently hammer out existing studs. not very hard
5. reinstall 10mm longer studs. This is a little tricky because of the e-brake drum setup getting in the way. IT can be finagled into place without much headache.
6. tighten longer studs. I used about 1" spacers or washers and the lug nut. An impact wrench did the hard work. Tighten until you can tighten no more. You don't want those getting loose.
7 Reinstall caliper,rotor, and wheel.
You are done.

I will get 3/4 pics tomorrow. I cannot tell you how such a little thing can make such a big difference. I love it!
