    Is he the driver in his profile?
    I think for a kit it's down to American or TC.
    I'd sorta like to go American to support local businesses.

    Oh sorry I didn't see your post..

    No that's not me in my profile, that's just some random pic I chose for the season since he look's crazy for the x-mas holiday.

    TC's kit doesn't even come close to the American Ms kit. Brenthel made a kit for the 5-lug's but for some stupid reason they decided to stick with the stock spindle snouts hoping to keep people that don't want to buy new rotors and calipers.

    We have a kit all ready to be welded right now too, so if you get the fund's together let me know and I may be able to get you a deal on it.

    That's ok,

    I didn't realize you changed it, there was a sweet race truck.

    What rotors and calipers do y'all use?

    Thanks, but LT is probably a year away, it all depends if I start college next year.
    Who do I talk to about pricing though?

    I put my race truck in the picture albums because I feel the loony fits better for this upcoming month lol.

    You can either use Dana 35 or 44 rotors depending on what snout you decided to go with. I'm sticking with the 35's because of my wheel lug pattern and just the standard Kragen rotors but the kit comes with 4-piston Wilwood calipers.

    If you want to talk about pricing you can pm AmeriMotor or myself.

    Ok, thanks for the info, is it a +3 or +6 kit? I didn't see that info on the website, I'm gonna guess +6 because of the travel numbers.

    Yes it's 6" which is about what TC, JD, Brenthel is also. If you look at the pictures from mine it will look really wide because my wheels have a wide offset.
