    Akebono is one of the OEM's for Toyota pads, there's various levels but generally speaking Akebono is a good brand.

    The 2024 New Tacoma’s will all have rear disc brakes. And coils springs in the rear similar to the 4Runners.

    Toyota claims drums brakes are better because of a larger surface for braking. And in its present and older models proven to be reliable. Why do super cars all have 4-disc brakes? Because it works.

    Some Tacoma owners converted their rear drums using the Tundra disc brakes, go figure? My 2001 Toyota Camry has 4 disc brakes! Toyota been using rear disc brakes for years and years.
