          They come with bolt-on calipers instead of crappy sliders and you have the option of swapping stock 10.25'' with a 12.1'' sporttrac brake rotors upgrade, which I have and really love. Brakes pretty good now with the upgrade and rear discs. Also have dual caliper pistons which are even better than the cobra ones


          Whats the jack bottle for? New catchcan?

            I'll probably end up doing that, it'll look and brake a lot better. Its my new coolant catch, I'm hopefully going to have it mounted and the drivers side tucked this weekend.

              The Jack bottle is on the back burner for now, I'm going to rubber mount it so that it won't break when I hit a bump. I was going through my garage this morning when I couldn't sleep and found a zx6 coolant overflow looked around my radiator support and guess what, the bolt holes lined up perfect! So I took my old one out and bolted it up. One of my favorite mods I've done to the truck I have to say. I cut the bolt down after I took the picture if anyone's wondering.

                Here are pics of the raised radius arm xmember.. I did keep the bar in between for frame ridgidity.. It's not scraping anymore from there=) Total installation time was around 2 hours but I had trouble to align the bolts to the stock bolt holes.. It's not really that hard, but it needs aligment now. If I were you I'd keep the bar too if you plan anytime to slam more power under the hood.. My next step is tranny xmember.

                Sorry you can't see much on the pic but I had around 1, 1.5 inch max of ground clearance, not a problem anymore as you can see.

                  Those are definitely on my to do list, looks like you gained a decent amount of clearance.

                  While I was driving today I saw a bronco the same color as Jedd so I stopped and took a couple of pics.




                  He was looking at me like I was crazy the whole time I was standing there.

                              You should totally do it man, if you want poke go with the 4 inch backspacing, but if you want a more flush look I'd go with 5.

                              I don't have any updates except I'll have my new tag next week, I've been working on the engine bay and helping my buddy with his bobber project. But expect some progress pics next week or so.
