Shocks and Brembo's - Check

Well after having my brakes done 4 times in a year by Firestone (hence, cheap rotors) due to warping - I was fed up. I ordered Brembos and 96 Land Cruiser PF pads along with Tokico shocks and decided it was time to do things right. I got the truck back yesterday and man, It feels great. It feels so stout and the back end no longer floats over bumps. The brakes are also squishy and smooth, its like a whole new driving experience. I picked up the parts for around $375 + $290 for installation so it didn't hurt tooooo bad. I highly recommend those shocks to anyone curious about them. The tech thought they were too stiff but once on the road they soak up the bumps and just feel good. Its not a Caddy ride, but its not a Caddy truck.


Thanks for the tips everyone!

PS - Wabbit, I was about to drive down to let you do the work but I just couldn't figure out how I was gonna fit the trip to T-Town in to the holiday schedule. If my sliders pan out - you got it.
