Finally, I got around to doing the TBU with the Power Stop KC-2324-36 kit that I got from Summit Racing for $305 shipped. And lastly, I have gotten around to actually posting about it!
A couple of notes up front:
1. Apparently not all 4Runners are made equally! I watched a YouTube video where a guy made a bleeder tool that connects to an air compressor, however, it turns out that the brake fluid fill cap on my truck was a different size and therefor the build did not work!
2. Brake bleeder screws are not a standard size! Factory bleeders were 10mm, and the ones on the new calipers were 8mm (kind of a P.I.T.A.).
3. Getting 90 ft/lbs of torque while working in the wheel well on a non lifted truck was not fun for a guy that is 6' 2"!
Now on to some of the pictures!
First up are some of the side by side comparisons of the factory parts with the new parts!
And the finished product!
No complaints from me at all!!! And it was a fun project!
