    Thanks for some peace of mind. It was a muffler shop that did it, so I figured they had it handled. I just showed them a pic of another member's truck.

    It very well may have been mine. I opted for having it done that way because it's simple and cheap. Retains the factory Y flange this way which I was a fan of. I only paid $120 too.

    Mine cost me 2 bills. They must have charged me Covid hazard charge.

    And spaced the brake line off two of the slider bolts.

    New brakes are on, and what a world of difference they make! LS460 calipers, IS-F rotors. Offering a full kit now for a complete bolt on solution. Not sure how to advertise without stepping on toes though

    Installed some ditch lights. Loving the look! I went with off brand because I live in West Hollywood (Not the most safe and quiet area at night) If they get stolen I won’t be upset losing hundreds of dollars.

    Here’s the link if anyone is interested and doesn’t want to spend an arm and a leg.

    It appears you are suggesting the 8115 also. That with the rivets and a backer and that shit will be solid. If not we’ll disregard what I just said

    Nice! What is the rotor size? Is there a 6 lug solution?

    Had an awful grinding/screeching noise coming from my left front at a half right turn. Immediately panicked and figured my wheel bearing was shot. Turns out I had a rock in my rotor from off-roading. Fun stuff. :)

    Just did the brakes and rotors on mine this morning. I can't believe all the rust on the caliper and the rotors!!! It's really unbelievable how much these trucks rust.
