Best brakes for a '02 4X4

Hi I am NEW on the forums.
I have a 2002 Tacoma V6 4X4 limited Automatic.
It seems that I am ALWAYS doing my brakes once every 1 1/2 years or so.
I live in LA and do alot of city driving but nothing too bad or extreme. I put about 10k on my truck every year including city and road trips.
My question is... What is the most durable bake set up?
I want to replace my brakes all around (pad, rotors, shoes and drums)
Can you please give me some suggestions as to what parts to replace my brakes with. Also where are you ordering/ buying brake parts from. Any suggestions or advice will be greatly appreciated.

 

welcome to tw!!

go here...........http://raceshopper.com/ best prices and customer service i have seen.

i have the s/p slotted rotors,with hawk lts pads, and i love them. as for drums......probably any ordinary drum like duralast from autozone will work, and some regular shoes for the back....the rear are only about 15 to 20% of your stopping power.

 

Brembo blanks w/ stock Toyota pads.

 

THANKS GUYS.... I ended up replacing my brakes with a NEW 2009 Tacoma TRD 4x4

 

Lol, congrats.

 

now THATS a helluva upgrade!!!

 

best upgrade available

 

I thought I spent extra $$$ buying the Caliper pin kit for my front brakes....Semirgdj,you out spent me by a "little bit"..

Good luck with that "NEW RIDE"....

Snoope

p.s. the "new" pads are Bendix-Gold semi-metallic!!!

 

yea.... my brakes work better than ever!!! ha ha ha

 

Wow! What was causing your brakes to wear so rapidly? I've had the same brake set up since the day I bought my truck (4 years ago) & they're still in decent condition.
