The rear is the easy part. Just do what I did and buy everything you see in this pic.

don't believe its gunna work on a 4x4... This appears to replace the hub assembly, which would not allow for the axle on the front.

Thats correct.

It will not work on a 4x4 or awd setup.

For everyone interested in the '99-'14 Chevy Silverado brake kit: We are taking orders NOW for these kits. We are trying to put in a bulk order for the component parts, so the sooner everyone places their order, the sooner we can get the kits assembled and ready to ship. If we get enough orders by the end of this week, we expect to have the kits done by the second week of August. All orders require a $500 deposit. If you're interested in ordering, call us this week at 409-225-5744.

You understand correctly. You can imagine why he wouldn't "recommend it". Plenty of bullshit opportunities for **** to bitch about a miss-used product and blame him if he said "it's for street trucks".

Myself, I'd probably not be skeer'd to roll with this stuff on a weekend warrior. I don't believe that I would be trying 90* turns for hours on end in a 5000 lb truck with them though.
