    Replaced a leaky and seized rear brake caliper last night. Turns out the SSBC 2424 caliper is a match for the 1987 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe rear brake caliper with a modified mount. Saved me a chunk of change buying a rebuilt Ford part and I can rebuild the one I removed for $10 and have a spare.

    Removed my rear mud flaps. Looks so much better without them. I did break 3 of the 6 fastners though. Anybody know where you can get some replacements?

    Used it at work in the rain to help level out some asphalt patches I laid last week. That's about it. Poor Tacoma, was all clean this morning, damn the rain!

    Tested out the new wheelers 5 leaf pack with a lot of dirt, enough to get the bump stops about 4 inches from the frame. They did great.

    Did you have to get any more leaf spring because of the extra weight?

    Looks like it came from Kevin (Fire931) who runs Armor Tech Offroad. Check out the vendor forums on here, he's got a section.

    Just got back from discount tire and they were able to get that passenger rear tire balanced correctly by turning it 180* on the rim. All is smooth now.
