    Looking good! The disc brakes are great but put off a lot of dust.

    I drove a 2013 388 with discs. It was the greatest thing ever. DOT don't want any part of them, and they gain power on downgrades with heat. Not sure why they aren't mandatory yet.

    I get 0 brake dust on my wheels from the disks on my company truck. But then again I dont use the brakes much and let the jake do 75% of the braking.

    Why Kustom Truck... They will help you with the process of specing out a truck... They can then build it for you with all there Bad ### Kustom work.... Or they will supply you with a factory quality wire harness, and ECM tailored to your specific. Build, with the ease of a factory style plug and play harness... They will supply everything a person needs to build there own Bad ### Truck... And now that I have got to meet the Family members of a truly Family Owned and Ran business, I can say they will walk you thru and give all the help and advise one needs for a successful Build...
    Why Kustom Truck???
    Why anyone else???
     
    FullMetalJacket and RERM Thank this.
