Okay, sorry if i'm spelling it wrong, but are there suppose to be Rear "Calipers" on a 98 Eclipses RS?? I just noticed that I only have front Calipers.

It could have only front disc brakes. Drums on the back maybe?

You can convert the back drums to disk's if you want

All you have to do is find a GS first, and take the some of the control arms, the struts, are the same...if you want to also use the GS rear sway bar you will need the parts for that....basically its a easy swap...the hardest part is feeding the ebrake line. Good luck

Hmm, that sounds a lil costy.... but I don't wanna get rims and have drums on the back and have disc on the front
