I have the SKY brackets, mainly because they do not have spacers. They fit perfect. I also used the Front calipers from a 1975 3/4 Ton 4x4.

My friend has the ORD brackets and they are good as well. I just did not want the spacers.

Black Widow makes some nice brackets too.

i am thinkin that black widow one just is spendy at 100 bucks

 

[tRustyK5]

I know they're not the cheapest, but I really like their quality...

At the end of the day I won't be patting myself on the back for finding the "cheapest" brake parts for my truck.

I like the brackets made by Kert (cybrfire), a vendor here. I have bough two sets, and both were awesome. http://www.diy4x.com/brakes.htm He uses solid spacers in his kit instead of pipe.

I second the SKY brackets. I used them b/c I did not want spacers. They fit perfect and were nicely made.

I'm very happy with tsmmfg.com brackets.

 

[lrazer]

those seem a little high at 300 bucks a pair

 

[ProJunkRacing]

no way in hell am i paying that for brackets

those seem a little high at 300 bucks a pair

The $300 kit isn't just brackets. If you read the $300 one includes:
(2) 2 Piece Brake Brackets

(4) Spacers

(2) Vented Rotors

(8) 1/2 - 20 X 1 1/2 Grade 8 Bolts

(8) 1/2 - 20 X 1 3/4 Grade 8 Bolts

(16) 1/2 – 20 Grade 8 Nuts

(8) 1/2 inch Grade 8 Lock Washers

Thier rotors are raybestoes made in US ones too, not the china ones that warp straight away. I didn't poke around enough, I know I asked them once on the phone what they wanted for just the brackets and it was like $99 or something.

ahh i spent about 30 a caliper last night for d44 calipers, then 26 a pop for rotors and had to buy a master cyl sucks i need caliper cores grr

I have the azkickin brackets which i don't believe are made anymore, but are similar to the DIY and ORD ones. I have had no problem with them, but I would run Sky's if I had to buy new ones today. I like the no spacer thing as well. Great products and pricing

tsm's old kit didn't have spacers,they added that to enable the use of regular chevy 3/4 front rotors. The old kit, which I have, used no spacers, and uses ford 3/4 ton front rotors.

yeah i think i am going to order some stuff from kert
