    The O'Reilly definitely has some surface rust on it compared to the Napa caliper but that doesn't bother me since it's only a visual thing and I'm over on the west coast and don't have to worry all that much about rusty stuff. If it did, I could just hit it with a bit of caliper paint.

    Good to know, thanks. And, certainly no difference as far as your hard line kit is concerned, right?

    If anyone is considering doing this upgrade in the near future, it's a good time to pick up parts at Napa. They're giving 20% off if you buy three or more items and a promotional tool bag.

    Calipers, brake fluid and the tool bag:

    When upgrading to the Tundra calipers, do I need to switch to Dot 4? Truck calls Dot Dot 3 on the reservoir lid.

    They’ll both work.
