Yes, Rick. I did indeed research them. Had to arrange a US shipping address before I could order them as AutoAnything does not ship to Canada.
I went this route as my total cost for the kit including exchange, taxes and gas to go get them across the border was just over half the cost to get them at the local Chev dealer. (i also would not have the upgraded pads or rotors)
The new brakes work very well, and i can tell they run cooler. I feel much more confident in the stopping abilities of the truck while towing. I feel it was a very worthwhile investment.

Recharged the A.c. with 134a. Compressor has a leak and I don't have 600bucks to fix it. Just limping along this summer until 600 bucks lands on my doorstep. I can get about a week to 10 days on a charge. And I Only charge it when I'm going to drive some distance. Good thing after tomorrow its going to sit until the end of July in the backyard.

Sweet Ride Jim. Just bought a new 2015 Ram 2500. Just put the steps, window drip molding, and spray in bed liner. Get the new 5th wheel hitch put in Monday and leaving on our next camping trip Tuesday. Boy, are we cutting it close. Sold my old truck right out from under me when I posted on Craig's list. Had to put off deliver for one week as we were all hooked up for our camping trip last week. LOL

Dropped her off at the Dealership this morning for the 1st oil change and to take care of the recall of the TPMS. Had her for 6 months and 3,800 trouble free miles! I've been very happy with the new TV and hope to have it for a LONG time!

Installed ladder rack for hauling the canoe. I used clamps to make it removable so I can still park in the garage. Looks great, I hope it works half as good as it looks!

Test fit the canoe on the rack. Fits and rides well, I think we'll be fine out on the road. Now if I could just get my replacement canoe parts in before we leave, that would be FANTASTIC! But I doubt it's going to happen.

I replaced both batteries with Optima Yellow Top. I was in a pinch and in a small town 47 months ago when my original OEM batteries died and the only batteries I could find was the 84 month from NAPA. They lasted 47 months. I had excellent and long service with Optima several years ago and finally got them in my TV. What a difference in cranking speed.
I know the NAPA batteries had 37 months of the 84 left, but whatever they would offer for the prorating wasn't worth it for me.
