    Yeah that is the first thing I checked, uca's are clear, I noticed a very slight rub at full lock but only when really trying to push the wheel passed it. Will probably look into some small spacers but doubt it will be an issue since the rubbing is only there when pushing the steering wheel passed its limits.

    has anyone had good experience with used OEM tundra brakes for the upgrade? Trying to compare getting a used set off a tundra VS. Aftermarket.

    They'll work better probably, but a lot more expensive for OEM for everything

    They look good, same price as rebuilt, looks like S & H is included, no $40 core charge either! My pads came with new pins, and clips.

    We purchased O'reilly's parts....they are my closest store & good warranty. Went with wheeler's tacoma brake lines. The 10mm line wrench is worth it.

    (new)Rotors #96931RGS $57.99ea X 2= $115.98
    (rebuilt)Caliper #19-2712 $77.99
    (rebuilt)Caliper #19-2713 $77.99
    (new)Ceramic pads #SC976 $39.99

    Apparently Tacomas have always come with grandtek tires. Pretty sure this is my factory spare. Pulled it and put my 16 inch spare with a new tire under the truck. This doesn't look like it's ever really been driven on
