Great White Taco build

You're moving up...

All in time. Patience grasshopper.

 

I think I'll do this today

 

I think these were ready to be changed?

 

Brakes are for sissies. Real men don't use 'em!

 

Plenty of meat left

 

What does it mean if the other side was worn more?

 

Caliper issue. Typically I would say yhe calioer sliders needed to be lubed, bit ours have pistons on both sides, so it is a fixed caliper. Pistons on one side could be patially or fully seized, coukd be due to lateral runout of rotor. I would siggest braking harder. A light foot on the brakes can cause the pistons on one side to move more than the other (again if the one side is partially seized)

Edit. The pads on my pass side did the same thing. I swapped calioers too when I did my brakes.

 

Goly hell it is a typo day

 

Yes.

 

Most trucks and SUVs do that. Especially Toyotas. There is more weight on the Driver's side, plus it gets more fluid pressure faster than the passenger side because its closer to the brake booster

 

@phatfurious2 has a build thread?

 

Mine had about half of that left when I finally got around to doing them

 

Milestone!

 

Figured he meant uneven pad wear from same caliper.

 

You have phat fingers for a scrawny dude like you.

 

Keep it up Floyd.

 

I knew what he meant because mine does it too.

Years ago, I thought maybe it was a bad caliper on mine until i saw his was doing the same thing

 

The next couple months plans:

U-bolt flip kit - ordered
Front wheel bearings - will hit up @nj636 soon
Waiting for spring Prinsu GB
ECGS bearing install - spring
Planning for regear/trip to ECGS

Small stuff:
Run the lines for rear OBA
Axe
Hard wire cb

 

Looks like we got work to do!
