    OME and worth every penny.
    Not following why THAT rotor was redrilled for 6 lug then if 4Runner. I get if they started with Sequoia. Anyway as long as a kit uses stock rotors from some model or make that's not rare I guess is good. Do have to plan on redrilling anything in the future though.

    Those sequoias are 6 lug, that's an aftermarket rotor which is why it has extra holes.
    The whole point of the adapter is to use off the shelf parts. Alot of cross drilled and slotted rotors have extra holes, including the extra factory ones to adjust the drum parking brake with a screwdriver.

    The factory rotors should work then and won't have extra holes, except the adjustment holes for the drum brake as I said. The only thing that is annoying is having to remove a rear rotor on these internal drum setups, its pretty tricky to get it off without popping springs and the drum will want to hold the rotor on. You'll see one day if you ever have to remove the stock taco rotor or one of these setups.

    It's Sequoia rotors, calipers and parking brakes. Yes it's an aftermarket Brembo rotor that fits a Sequoia. I'm the second owner of the kit. Original owner bought the kit with the intention of shipping it back to his home country of Thailand. The import tax was more then he paid for the kit. So he had to sell it quick before he flew home.
