Are the rear calipers 4 or 6 piston? They look to be 6 piston in the pictures? Either way they look GREAT!

Wilwood must be 80K+ sq ft, the install took place in the R&D dept...

Hey Dave,

It's all good brotha! Thank you so much allowing us to do the install your beautiful truck. It's an honor to work with such down to earth people like yourself. If there's anything that I can do to help you out, holla at brotha.

Wow... just, wow!

I was stuck for a little while on the first picture with the truck in the shop. Then I made it down to the last picture outside.
