Im planning to run the Corvette front setup, larger 12-14" rotors( depending on model) dual piston calipers, all light weight aluminum components and it ends up being cheaper. Can buy complete front suspension setups on ebay for around 500 and the custom crossmember for around 800-850 shipped.
So 500-600 less for a suspension that was designed for a performance car, verse a 70's commuter car.

The reason i dont like this route is i like the idea of a kit designed to work for the truck not something fabbed to work. I would hope the big manufacturers would have worked the kinks out to get better results
