Yeah they were Ford castings, and every single other factor was pure garbage. Even the half-assed paint they use. The L and R weren't even done the same. It was like they were just slapping them together with whatever throwaway parts they snatched out of the dumpsters over at Raybestos.

Did the axles 2010 and brakes 2015. Got rid of truck 2 years ago w/o any problems. I swapped front pads a few times just trying others out. I had a good experience w/them. Some places offered rust proofing, not sure about paint.
Haven't heard of those. They must of came later. Trying to recall the name of the pads they carried. Good brand but they changed how they were made, pad material. Changed for the worse imo.
I have Napa's on Frankie. They are very nice calipers. I agree on the coating they used.. absolutely solid stuff. Glad you reminded me about those. The box is even in my pic:
HF has a 20% coupon for members today. I've been wanting one of these, but didn't want to buy into the Hercules battery eco-system. I found a Dewalt to Hercules adapter on Amazon, then waited for a sale. I picked up this nibbler for 100 bones today.
I am also thinking pretty hard on a 5 lug swap on The Eight Nine. I would prefer 94/95 spindles, but I might just use my 99-04 spindles and just get a bump steer kit. The modular K member sat different than the SBF K member. If you look, the tie rods sit in a different location (right side is modular).

Mine are the Adaptive One line. Not sure if that's above or below Eclipse, but again, I'm very happy with them. Would buy again.
