    I would think that would only effect the rear brakes, and the front brakes usually do most of the stopping

    Yes. On several trucks. It's supposed to increase fluid pressure. Which should make the pedal harder.

    Wouldn't be pissed if those were my specs, haha. My camber is fucked in the front though so as long as your cams all work those numbers should be bueno.

    My cams are all frozen, that's why I'm refreshing the entire front end this winter. Got all new LCA bushings, ball joints, coilovers (used), OEM cams (used but in perfect condition) probably gonna do UCAs too because the stock ones can't handle extended travel

    Just lowered my driver side co by .25" on the threads. God damn it they rode stiff with 2" of threads showing. Didn't even feel like the same suspension.

    Yea.

    My 03 stock one was 13/16"

    Got a dual diaphragm booster with a MC from a 97 taco. It was a 1" mc.

    Put a t100 heavy duty mc on the dual booster. It's a 1-1/16" bore.

    Took a trip down memory lane. Got bored and looked at some of my 4 year old post. I was such a peasant back then. Now I'm just a broke peasant. image.jpg
