[QUOTE="jmimac351, post: 1238737, member: 10104"] Chief, in my opinion you don't need them. Just go to a hose place and get 3" ID hose that can withstand some heat. Go to home depot and buy HEAVY duty cable ties. Get them in the plumbing dept. Remove the heat shields on the front spindle. Tip: get a pair of snips. Rock the sheild back and forth and it will crease to the point where the metal will actually tear. Use the snips to trim it up. Trying to drill out the rivets is a nightmare. This other way is clean and MUCH easier. The ducts will attach to the inlet on the fascia. Get some metal tape to help tap the ducts to the fascia. Add a worm gear clamp as well. The duct on the facia is tapered so it is hard to slide the hose all the way up. Check clearance/range of motion for the hose with the spindle as you turn the wheel to full lock in both directions. Cut to length and zip tie to the tie rod. There are two plastic panels you will need to remove as well. They are just splash gaurds and just pop right off. This sort of setup is cheap and WILL cool your brakes. [/QUOTE]
