TCE REAR big brake Install Update.....NOW COMPLETE !!!

well guys i started the install.......but the caliper bracket needs to be modifed a bit more by Todd over at TCE, I'll tell ya though considering he did not have a lightning or even a rear axle for mock up this kit is so far SPOT ON......once the bracket is changed a bit these should go on without a hitch....."knock on my wood" LOL

before:



after:





All i can say is WOW...the improvement is night and day.....I finished a few hours ago and took the truck out in the rain to bed them in and test them.....stopping power is improved dramatically...

also since the rears have so much more power now it lowers the burden on the front a bit i am guessing this thing just STOPS like a fat lady at the mcdonalds drive thru now...
