Matched up the 2015 rental with the 2006. Still love the NBS lines.

Just ordered new tailgate lift supports. Thanks woytovich for doing the leg work on finding a solid replacement/upgrade and posting up the video and link where to get them from!

Brakes at the front door this afternoon. Powerstop Z23 Evolution Sport K2015 cross-drilled and slotted rotors and carbon ceramic brake pads for all 4 corners. Looking forward to a little extra bite and looks behind the spokes. Going to put a couple coats of black for looks and rust prevention. Will update the build thread once they are on with more pictures.

$310 Amazon Prime to the door. Searched all other sites and was same or more. E.g. Auto Anything, Rock Auto, etc...

R1 Concepts were double that price. There were plenty of good reviews on here and elsewhere for the Power Stops. We shall see once they are installed. Got to be an improvement over OEM and the fact that they are new ones at that.

FWIW I have ordered Brakemotive rotor/pad kits for 2 different vehicles and they say powerstop all over everything. Usually $160-$200 for drilled and slotted rotor and ceramic pads for all 4 corners.

Put on my 3/5 drop today. Also rebuilt the front suspension, new hubs, tie rods, idler, and pitman arm, upper control arms, and lower ball joints. Truck is filthy, I didn't wash it because it was supposed to rain, but it never did, lol. Here's how it used to look:

Drop looks good. What happened to the color matched mirror caps? Should also color match the handles...wheels look good.

Thanks. The mirrors are the same, the sun just made them look that way in the pic. I plan on painting the caps, and I already have a complete set of smooth handles to paint. I plan on painting the whole thing soon.

Nice on the drop and demolding. Color match will look great! Listen to OHSIXX , he will lead you down that path very easily with the NBS haha.
