Paperwork / Instructions for CPP disc conversion

Hey all,

I ordered and recently received the disc brake conversion for my 69 GMC (currently 6 lug manual drums) from CPP. Unfortunately it didn't come with any paperwork, and I thought it might be quicker to see if any of you may have something you could email or post. Scanning them in and sending 'em would be ideal. They do have a few instuction sheets for some of their stuff (online), but nothing that shows the new spindles, ball joints, rod ends, etc for the kit I have.

It's the full kit (6370SWBK-6D) complete with spindles, calipers, rotors, tie rod ends, ball joints, etc. If anyone has used a similar kit, I'd expect the paperwork is the same (stock height or drop shouldn't matter, nor should lug count). I did also get a new booster / master cyl / prop valve, but it came with the right papers.

What I'm after is how to replace parts in the future for wear, and which of these parts are actually stock parts for given year/model vehicles. For instance, I believe all the tie rod ends and ball joints are just 73-87 parts, but what about the calipers? What brake pads do I get? How about bearings, seals, etc? Are the rotors stock on something or are they custom made particular to this kit?

I'd also like to get any torque specs they may have put in the installation instructions, or if there were any other special instructions they may have had. I'm going to be pulling the old suspension off and maybe getting some of the new stuff on this weekend, so I'd like to get this as soon as I can. I realize chances may not be that great that someone has these, but it would probably be a lot faster than going through the original source. I may try calling them tomorrow anyway to see if they could email me or fax them.

Thanks!
