MARYLAND TACOMAS

How well did the rotors fit over the wheel hub? Was it a nice "factory" hub-centric fit or was it more like the typical aftermarket rotor "lug centric" fit? I leaned a valuable lesson this summer in CO and I won't go back until my 'runner ( or possibly a new toy ) have proper oversized brakes. It SUCKED having 80% brake fade while driving/sliding down the back side of Engineer Pass. I may never get the sh*t smell out of the drivers seat...

 

I heard that smell was there before you went

 

Thank you!! Much appreciated.

 

Tight fit on the hub. Going to upgrade the master cylinder at some point. The truck now stops better in a panic simulation. I know the brake fade feeling, trucks pushing past 5000 lbs, thus the upgrade the brakes. See my build page the last entry has more brake pictures.

Use to be today was Taco Tuesday!

now it's just fucking downtown tuesday, and these are my fucking downtown emotions, which by the way, will be my fucking downtown wednesday emotions too

 

Find a downtown restaurant that floats your boat (e.g., 5 Guys) and make it lunch on the town Tuesday.

 

Then I will just be broke and pissed off. I tell ya, don't even try to get a decent lunch for under $12.00. Pandemic Inflation for the same shitty service and food is stupid. Guess I need to just eat less these two days of the week. I have the stores to hold me off.......

 

2 burritos from Chipotle used to be 15.10… now adding in delivery it’s like 32 for those same burritos… or I guess, like 20 now for 2 burritos…

 

I'm going to start food shopping for lunch items at the Dollar General. I can get something that they call a burrito for a buck!

 

Head over to Canton and enjoy a good burger at Looneys, plus all of the 20-something chevage that your eyes can handle!

 

7-11 day old sushi is budget friendly.

 

My eyes can only handle one cleave these days.

 

See, now you're talkin'!! Would probably help me stay regular too.

Door dash and uber eats is a scam. Tax plus delivery fee plus tip. I did it way too much last year.

 

And when you're body's done with that 'burrito' return it to the wrapper for your next lunch. That's basically what it is, anyway lol

 

Are the rotors a larger diameter? I couldn't tell from the build thread pics.

 

Yes. ~+1”diameter and tad thicker. Some guy on the interweb weighed his vs stock. Rotors are about 2 lbs heavier, ~20 lbs.

You made me look. StopTech 126.44174’s. 340mm x 32mm, OEM 320mm x 28mm, (26mm minimum).
