I do not want to spend money on crap parts....so does anyone have a opinion on CPP's parts compared to POL? What have you all done on the past to upgrade to discs all the way around?

Thank you,

Post up a picture of the truck your working on . Have you already rebuilt the suspension ? wheels/tires/ is it already dropped ? What look / style are you going for ? Daily driver ? weekend warrior ? have you already replaced body mounts ? Have you already replaced all new brake lines , Ball joints ,shocks . Or are you installing the big brake kit and when you stomp on the new brakes the body comes off and keeps going ? Plan on hitting the burn out box ? There's a lot to consider / upgrade before tossing a new "big brake kit " under it .
