BRake suggestions

[EWC88]

Time for truck to get new brakes and fluid changed. Last time I did brakes was before lift and I went with advance auto brand. Seemed to do fine with lift but I want to see some options. I do not tow anything, future I might buy a trailer to help with bringing trees to local compost but that’s it, no camper, no boat.

Have a 4.5” lift running 20’s wrapped in 35’s.

Without braking ( ha ) the bank hardcore, because baby on way, what brakes would you guys suggest? Now I’m not asking for cheapest but not asking for the gold plated brakes either lol.

I do not care on dust because I try to wash my truck weekly, so that isn’t a issue with me. I will be doing front and rear.

Ebc pads are nice in my opinion. Used them in a few vehicles. Will swap my truck to the green stuff pads when it's time

check out R1 Concepts

https://www.r1concepts.com/

They have great performing brakes that last too. We sell a good amount of them and some of my coworkers run them too. Even the boss man with his Roush stage 2 Raptor runs R1Concepts brakes and is very happy with them.

let me know if your interested and I can work you up a quote shipped on them with your forum discount

Also are you looking at doing just pads or pads and rotors?

 

[SYKRAMMAN]

Powerstop.com has some good deals on slotted and regular rotors and pad sets.

Nick: looking to do pads and rotors, I dusky end up always replacing everything when doing brakes lol.

SYKRAMMAN: might be dumb question, if you were doing powerstop, with my set up would you do the Daily Driver, truck/ 4x4, or stock? Looks like powerstop.com doesn’t sell them I have to go to other site for it.

Recently installed Powerstop drilled & slotted rotors and PS pads as well. I do a bit of towing and they were GREAT. Far better than stock.
Wasn't that pricey either.

When I do brakes in the coming months {starting to hear slight squeals only on touching them} I'm going with EBC yellowstuffs, their GD sport rotors, steel brake lines, and DOT4 fluid. I'm estimating it to be about $1k in parts. The labor will be by myself and my godmother.

But it'll stop like a mother for having stock sized rotors and calipers. Now... if only I could get a Wilwood or Brembo kit. 15" rotor, 1.5" thick, 8 pistons.....
