    Hey guys I’m looking to upgrade my brakes and I was wondering what’s a good option people have tried. I’m looking at just upgrading the rotors and pads can’t afford a big break kit. I live in a mountainous hilly area and I’m going to be adding a four wheel camper to truck that will be on part time. I saw on Amazon they sell a power stop kit for $190 that has slotted rotors and new pads. Any feed back or recommendations would be appreciated or this kit or others. Thanks

    If you can't afford a BBK, then you probably should be putting on a 4WC that will put you over the legal GVWR of the Tacoma... Unless you're getting the Project-M version, then just upgrading the rotors and pads should be fine.
