    For those that have full armor (rear, front, and sliders) and a winch, have you experienced excessive brake wear or premature failure? With the full load out plus other random doo-dads like skids or bed racks, you could easily be increasing the weight by up 20-25%% or so. That would seem to have an affect on stock brakes after a while.

    Anyone upgrade their brakes to accommodate the extra weight?

    Most people, with much more weight, are running factory brakes and are just fine.
