thanks guy's,all the hard work and saving has finally paid of. :D :D :D
hotrod it's a 29.5/10.5/15 the rear end is just about the same width as a stock one and the rims have an 4 1/2" BS on them, i have one side that rubs just a hair so i'm going to get an 1/8 to 1/4 inch spacer and put on it. hopefully i will make it friday to HMP for some test hits on all the new stuff.
gs the kits were not that bad it was 1033.59 for everything but the hoses.

this would be the drag kit from aero and they offer a street version, the rotor is like a motorcycle rotor (single blade). i guess it would depend on how much you drive on the street....daily driver or just weekend.....i would say it would hold up to weekend driving.

Nice truck. That is the same front brake setup that I installed on my truck last year. They work awesome. I ony have a few passes on mine and they haven't warped yet. Will give them the big test this year!!! Good luck oon your test-n-tune.
