NJ B.S. Thread

I might be buying a bigger trailer this week or next tho. Brothers deciding on a 4x4 quad now instead of a sport quad. Used to just put his front tires on my tool box in the bed
With the 3 feet of bed I have from having a box in there

 

@cynicalrider considering 2 kits. Either power stop kit from summitracing or Napa calipers with ebc rotors and pads

 

hmmm....
I might take you up on this.
Let me think this through.

 

@Lilcarkid - Can I borrow for this Saturday morning?

 

LMK how those price out too. This is the best priced kit I have seen, not a big fan of the red though.

Callahan CCK11988 FRONT Powder Coated Red [2] Calipers + [2] Rotors + Quiet Low Dust [4] Ceramic Pads Performance Kit

Summit racing beats Amazon with the power stop kit. Cheapest I found with the $80 core refund. With the ebc brakes it's definitely expensive, but I'm sure it will make a difference. The key is to find brake pads that when pressed the entire surface is on the rotors. So far I found the toyota oem and the ebc with this characteristics.

I will need brakes in the spring. I was just going to replace with the same as what the OP put. But I figured out they used EBC Yellowstuff towing brakes and Drilled and slotted rotors. Over $300 for the front!

 

Yea they are pricey, but us 1st gen owners need it. Specially with bigger tires. I think the 2nd gens have stronger brakes.

 

Not bad but where are you going to get tundy cores? Can't send them your taco cores.

It's different for second gen's than what we are discussing. We literally put Tundra calipers and rotors on our 1st gen tacomas.

 

Yea of course.

It's 4x8 if you were wondering 4 tie down points on each side. Little custom jobber, old jet ski trailer.

 

Nice. Thanks.
You coming over to help?
If not, how early can I pick up trailer on Saturday morning? Or Friday evening?

 

@HolyHandGrenade and others.
What portable heater do you guys recommend I get for my garage? I'm tired of working in the cold.
I have a parabolic reflector heater, but it just doesn't cut it.

 

I have a "torpedo" heater and run it off 100# tanks. I can give you the datails on it later.

 

That's an expensive setup. I just went with Wagner OEX pads and Centric solid rotors. Best setup I've had. I had EBC on my xterra. I saw no real benefit other than looks.

 

I didnt do it, but I dont think Im going to replace it with the same. I dont do any towing currently, so looking into other options. I like using www.r1concepts.com

 

That'd be perfect. Enough room to keep the two bumpers separate, so not a lot of protective wrapping required.
And low to the ground too. Bringing those heavy bumpers down from a lifted bedside was going to be painful.
Thanks again.

 

If you are sneaky about it, maybe you could get away with it in napa.

 

@HolyHandGrenade you have bilstein 5125s? 10" stroke?
