    What have you done to your square lately??

    Yes sir..I have planned to put the new calipers up front and swap the old ones out for Caddy calipers to get the parking brake back. I need to rebuild the fronts anyway and thought it would be best to have a parking brake with 37's lol

    Bled the brakes today and put some new hard brake lines in the rear with the new disk conversion. Cracked open the front diff and changed the fluid out. Bolted on an Eddy air intake and filter, engine bay is a lot cleaner looking with it.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I know it..started adding up new drums, shoe kit, cylinders, seals and quickly got to $300. If the seals hadn't of done the damage they did I would have rebuilt the drums but jumped on the opportunity to convert, was an easy process too.

    Thank you sir! Lugnut4x4.com great folks to deal with. I was gonna acquire all the parts separately and source from other trucks but for $350 shipped to my door the price was good. In the kit came: conversion brackets, rotors, calipers, pads, axle seals, brake hoses, and hardware.

    Oil Sending Unit Help

    Good report! They ordered the correct part and was identical to the unit I took in. They had 2 different brands available and chose the one without the Teflon tape but rather the red loctite look on the threads. It is installed and no leaks and gauge is all good.

    looking for 17 inch wheels

    H2 wheels are an option..you can usually find them cheap on craigslist or even ebay. I was in the same boat and got a steal on 37x12.50x17 maxxis tires, the h2 wheels were cheap, made well, and look great.
