    Disc brake kit is from SOS Concepts. Stephen at ECGS requested that I send it to them to be sure it would work with the axle. That’s the non-parking brake version. It was $700 I believe

    I already have wires, relays, and switches for rear facing lights. I used one set for the LED bar, which, honestly, is enough.

    But, as I said, I already have the wires run for another set. So, I put these pods on the frame. There were already holes there from when I removed the OEM spring hangers.

    I’ll probably end up aiming them off to the side a little. I know they’re vulnerable in that spot, but they were $15 a pair on Amazon. I’m not too worried about it.

    It’s only a matter of time before I back one into a rock.

    See? This is why I respect you so much Greg. You have all the good ideas.
