Default Looking into the brake mod

Hey guys, got a little confused reading through all the threads and want to verify the brake mod is something I can do on my scab and if the parts I need are the same that guys with screws get. I was reading through some forums and only saw people with screws performing the mod and wanted to make sure. And then I also read that screws have more heavy duty brakes over my scab? Just want to make sure I am doing this write and get the parts from the right vehicle. Thanks guys.

If you order loaded calipers and rotors from a 2002 Expedition, it's a bolt-on mod.

The 7700 calipers and Expedition calipers are the exact same part number. If you order BRCL62RM and BRCL125RM you are good. Those are loaded and include the pads and brackets.
