    Been super busy but install day right now is going to be 4/22 or 4/23. Post/Pics to follow. If we have a nice straight away We will try to plan a brake test at 40mph to 0 similar to what @Low Range Off-Road has done in the past.

    Sweet hopefully the swap goes smoothly. Once this is confirmed that it will fit I will then put a kit together for anyone that would like to do this swap. Its not as great as the TRD/Stoptech 6 piston kit "per say" but it's an upgrade for a more budget minded person.

    That is what I am hoping for! Either way it will look bad ass but hope is for some sweet braking over what I currently have.

    Any one have good recommendations on painting Calipers since they are not on, should be easy to get complete prior. Had a setup from way back but paints no good now.

    You are already following my SAS taco account on IG. Once the SAS is done, I will be running 37s, so more breaking power/control is needed :D
    Especially since I am losing the ABS.

    Performed the 2010+ 4Runner 14WA 338mm brake swap this weekend. Write up coming soon Low Range Off-Road . Overall it was a success. I'll keep you posted Brycen. :burnrubber::drunk::bananadance::bananadance::bananadance:

    Looking forward to hearing what you think. I have been wanting to do this swap for a few months now but the prices of everything has kept me from doing it so far

    Sure thing. Overall pedal feel is great, has more bite than before and initial tests were great. I plan to do one more break test in about a week after they are a bit seasoned. We performed the brake test minutes after initial bedding.

    Took pictures from start to finish and videos of 40mph panic stop before and after. Hope to have a pretty conclusive write up. But i can say overall I like the overall feel much better.

    Setup is 14WA Caliper, Stoptech slotted Rotor, Stainless lines F/R with stock pads (debated on a semi or ceramic but good to test even on regular. Shows it will have more to improve on) and I used ATE Origional TYP 200 Dot 4 Brake Fluid (essentially super blue without the blue dye). Hope to have the write up in a weeks time after I can get another test run and compile the
    data.

    Here is a little teaser for you.... :transformer::benchpress: Looks killer no matter what. Especially hidden behind SCSPerformance Ray10's.
