I loved IRS in my Mustang. I doubt it would make much sense in a truck. Opinions?

So if I've read this right, my 02screw should have the larger front discs and I can upgrade a bit by getting 7700 front calipers?

Powder coated calipers and cross drilled and slotted rotors with ceramic pads.

Yes that is correct. I have seen alot depend of GVWR. Best way to check is to see how thick the rotor that you truck calls for is..

And yes I have a big boat. I have a 2008 Hydrasport 2500. Has 2 Yamaha 250's
