    IMO honking a horn in traffic is a great way to find that one person that likes returning the favor via muzzle flash.

    They aren’t, because those are made for Solid Axle Pickups and 4Runners.

    You can buy the manual hubs from Toyota. I got brand new OEM ones when I did my conversion.

    I test every system I make and it’s always on the workbench directly below me. Perhaps it would be a wise decision to wear hearing protection.

    Sorry, T. It's a running joke around here. When someone says they think they lost hearing, the usual response is "what?"

    Carry on and ignore me.

    What kind of pad did you end up going with? Ive got some rotors but have yet to get pads. I'm thinking Akebono proact ceramic, but I'm open to any suggestions.

    I don't get worked up about brake pads anymore. They almost all will last longer than the rotors. In fact, the "squeelers" are not common on pads like they used to be.
