Changed brakes, have my entire original setup leftover:

1. Hubs (turned down rotors), bearings included - see below
2. Grand Am rotors - look great
3. Grand Am calipers painted (powdercoated?) red - look great
4. Dust shields (if you want them) - California car, zero rust

This stuff was all on my car when I bought it at ~98k, and I'm pretty sure it was all installed at about 70k based on receipts. The grease in the wheel bearings still looks good.

Caveats:

1. One of the hubs has a small problem. There are hairline cracks at three of the five wheel studs on the outer perimeter. I have no idea what this means in terms of safety, nor if the cracks could be repaired. I removed all the studs with the intention of having the repairs done and keeping the hubs as spares, but lost interest.
2. Pads are shot, they've been trashed.
3. I kept the spindle nuts and washer to re-use

Price for all this is $20 (so I can buy some beer), but you pay shipping.

The box containing all these items weighs 62lbs, so shipping will not be cheap. Probably between $50 and $70 depending on where you are.

I'll get a picture up soon.
