Best brand of brakes for Tundra brake upgrade

since you're doing the upgrade you wouldn't need the drilled/slotted since you are getting more surface area to dissipate heat to begin with. the holes in the rotor helps cooling but unless you're desert racing you probably won't generate the amount of heat. it also introduces points of failure throughout.

I used EBCs standard replacement (no TBU for me yet) and it brakes a little better than stock.

also keep in mind the material and look at reviews for the amount of brake dust they generate.

 

This is why I recommended OEM pads. I've never seen any other pad produce as little dust as OEM.

 

I did the upgrade with Callahan parts, they work ok, better than before at least. I have a lot more pedal travel though, going to try and bleed again this weekend. I'll post up how it turns out. I was expecting a night and day difference, didn't see it. Better, yes, incredible, no, at least not yet. Maybe better pads would help too.

 

For what it's worth I used Napa Eclipse Calipers, EBC Rotors and EBC Green Pads, ditched the banjo bolts, installed stainless brake lines. Flushed fluid and the pedal feels solid. I've read that the green pads are dusty and don't last long but they perform great. The truck isn't a daily driver so longevity doesn't matter to me.
Your truck looks good I use to have a 99 that color.

 

Thanks, yeah I forgot to mention I used the wheelers stainless braided lines. Had to use an extra washer to get the line to tighten down to the caliper, otherwise the bolt was to long. Used the bolts that came with the lines.

 

For the Wheeler's brake lines. Should I order the Tacoma ones or the Tundra ones? since we're doing Tundra brakes...
