    Yes sir. I'm actually banking on never putting enough miles on my truck to do a timing belt. It will eventually become just a winter/trail warrior.

    I replaced the 5 resistors with 2 100ohm 1watt resistors and now it works fine. The 5% tolerance on each of the 5 resistors was killing performance.

    Ditched it and got a Wilwood manual brake proportioning valve. Allows me to adjust from 0 to 57% pressure reduction. Fabbed up a little bracket too that uses the factory mounting holes

    Installed my front Allpro skid plate today which was a pain in the ass. That thing is heavy!! I need to get some longer bolts to install the second plate though.

    Installed new pads and rotors. Was advised not to get slotted rotors. I think it was a good choice

    A lift, some wheels, some tires, some performance, some cosmetic and then audio.
    If you wheel or off road much you can get rock pebbles wedged between the pads and the slots.

    I was given the same advice.

    What did you end up going with and how do you like them so far?

    Slotted/crossdrilled remove surface area from the rotor. Unless you increase the size of the caliper along with crossdrilled/slotted rotors, you'll increase stopping distance.
    Why pay more for shittier performance?

    Certain pads must use slotted rotors to dissipate the gas and dust build up. I bet you have an aggressive pad that benefits from the rotors.
