If I have to pay taxes I'm still under $300 for the rear. Otherwise I'm at $460 for the rear going through Lordco up here. I figure a week wait and a hour of driving time is worth the $200 savings for me.

yeah, shipping can make or break the deal up here. can you imagine the cost to ship 200lbs of brake drum across the border. after i factor in my gas, time, duty & taxes, some things it's worth it, some aren't. my family rides in my crew, so i got "premium" parts,not really the place where cheapest is bestest anyways. don't know if you know, but if your truck ever makes it over 4"'s of lift, it's supposed to be safetied, without that e-brake, your truck's not going anywhere

Have you checked classicindustries.com? Idk if they're cheaper than rockauto but they were about half the price of what I got them for at oriellys.

Yeah being only 20 min from the truck crossing & mail box helps. Pricing down there is 50% cheaper for HD pads compared to here. It's amazing that you can get HD pads for $50 set there vs $100 here for the good stuff. Usually I wait till I have a few items to order though to make it really worth my time and to save more. At least this way I can rebuild the whole rearend for $400 with HD parts and not have to skimp on it :D

Didn't know about the height issue although any lifted vehicle can get a VI. Mine will stay stock height though since I need easy access to the bed. If it were just a toy it'd get 4" of lift asap haha

Thanks. It'll actually all stock. It's an ex-forstry truck so it was ordered from the factory with HD everything and overload suspension. The spid lists "auxillary suspension" as an option so I'm guessing by that it means overload. Also has codes indicating "manufacturer add-ons" which don't have names so who knows what else was added compared to a stock truck lol

Here's my spid. I figured out half the codes and others I haven't found a listing for yet.

I know for sure its woodland green with 4.56 gear, t-case skidplate, cold climate/block heater package and a fleetside dually haha I got that much out of the codes, which is also the obvious stuff :D
