have fun with that, it took me hours with an electric grinder...........

bob it is best he does it on the car, because you want to take off as LITTLE as possible and still get the job done.

the way to do this, is to grab a can of spray paint you have laying around, and as you take metal off, spray a light coat on bolt on the wheel and spin.... it will remove the paint from the areas that still need it.

another thing, when i put in my 12 bolt with c-clip eliminators, i had to grind even more off the calipers...
