If I remember right it's within an inch. I'll have to measure to be sure.

Let me know on that I’ve been wanting to do a 2” rear spring to level it out but if the fronts only off an an inch could probably get close to that with the stock keys if not swap in some lowering keys

Found out I am an idiot. The "brackets" for my calipers came pre assembled. I was looking for something to be seperate from the caliper. realized it right before I shipped em back.

Just waiting for me to have time to slap em on... Wife is going crazy from the indicators so Im sure Ill find time sooner rather then later.

My SSBC NNBS rotors look real nice and much bigger then the NBS stuff. I assume the zinc coating is fairly long lasting? I usually paint the rotor hats, but it appears to not be necessary here.

I'll give the calipers a nice coat of black. I've got POR15 brush on caliper paint laying around.

looks good, i need to get around to switching my retrofit from my OEM housings to my aftermarket housings. They are all black too, already have Morimoto 7.1s in my current housings, bought Profile highbeam LED projector and have some goodies for the turn signal too

The video is upside down, I know, but you get the gist.

See photo below with yellow arrow for where I am hearing the noise.

AC clutch, idler puller, bearings, belt?

A/C on makes the noise.
A/C off some noise, but not as noticeable. Sometimes gets a bit quieter after more driving. Quite pronounced at start up. But always clicking.

A\C blows cold and strong.



Yellow arrow is where noise is most noticeable.

Are you sure it's coming from the ac compressor? That's where the arrow looks like it's pointing. I had a very similar nouse and it was my tensioner pulley. Have a stethoscope? If not a long handled screw driver works. Touch the metal tip to where you think the noise is coming from and put your ear to the handle-- might give you a better idea of the location of the noise. Be careful tho, lots of moving parts!!

Not 100% sure. Started truck again, and fairly quiet. Can hear it clicking tick tick sort of like a lifter tick but not that fast at rev, but not really a whine.

Noises are really hard to diagnose under the hood, so many moving parts.

Mine does the same thing. Maybe a little more squeak that tick. I sat there with aerokroil with the straw and started shooting stuff one by one. AC tensioner on mine. I figured wth and ordered : ac belt, ac tensioner, idler, seep tensioner, serp belt, water pump.

Did it work? Or are you still waiting on the parts?
