Good luck. I don't think many people have had much luck in getting a 330mm kit to fit. Even my 290mm UPC kit took some modification.

Been lots of posts on the subject.
Mostly not good ones.
And the supplier isnt very helpful about the issue either if they are from the same place.

Not having a dig, but seriously why do people not do a quick google search of a product before buying it?
Getting a $15 knife off ebay, fair enough, but a $1200 + brake kit, i'd spend a week reading shit before shelling that out, and in the case of the UPC 330 there is no way in hell I would be buying it after the first hour of looking into other peoples experiences.
Cheers.

The taller top balljoint is but an excellent improvement also if you go that way. I have the same Howe racing ones.
I got taller poly droop stop thinngy too rather than adding metal.

oh ok , might try to sell on the kit and go for a hoppers or willwood kit that will bolt straight on and pass no probs, and yeah i spoke to upc prior to purchase and they said would bolt striaght on , and purchased on ebay auction for 500 so obviosly got tricked intoit a bit, but thanks any way bomber

THat seems awfully cheap, did you buy it off someone who had tried to fit it and failed and was selling it on or is that the going rate?
