    Would like to increase brake size on front of Taco "96 4WD. Has rotor system/pads. Any suggestions appreciated on brake mfg. to consider or your experience if you have done this. Thanks all! Woodcutter

    The most popular brake mod is the tundra brakes. It is 100% bolt on. Do a search and you'll find tons of info.

    You need 16" wheels. Stock 16" SR5 wheels will work, but some aftermarket ones won't. All 17" or bigger fit just fine.
