    That kind of shit needs to be reported to some overseeing agency...that guy is probably taking advantage of lot of people who don't know any better.

    I did this day before yesterday. And really enjoyed changing them out. But damn....took a long while to get them and my E brake adjusted! I probably pulled on my E brake 400+ times!

    Getting the old stuff removed was annoying. As well as adjusting the shoes afterwards. I still haven't adjusted my E-brake just yet. I'll try to get that done this week

    Toe was way out on the pax side. I will say though that the TC Cam Tabs and SPC's really keep the caster/camber tight. I haven't had those numbers budge much on me in almost a year, even after multiple wheeling trips.

    But you've got a suspension fork on there. Step it up one more notch and go full rigid. That'll teach you to pick lines carefully. :stirthepot:

    Looks good. Not a fan of the boxy badge, but I have always liked the 4wheel drive badge.

    How hard is it to do and do you need special tools?

    Definitely not hard. And no special tools required, although using the special clip retainer release tool would have made life easier. But definitely not needed. Just make sure you have a BFH to get those drums off. And take LOTS of pictures to refer to for where all the springs go. Each side uses like 4 or 5 springs and you gotta remember exactly where they go
