I thought the whole difference between the 2 upgrades was that one is a 199mm diameter rotor and the other is a 231mm diameter rotor.

EDIT: I just realized that 231mm and 199mm can't be the diameter of the rotor since that's like 8 and 9 inches respectively and the rotors are like 12" diameter. So does 199/231 refer to the pad width or something?
Yes. The Tundra brake upgrade useez the same wide rotor. This refers to the caliper brake pad opening.

199/231mm refer to the brake pad backing plate size not the rotor.

I went on NAPAonline and saw that both the Tundra and Sequoia share the same front calipers, FYI. I'll make sure that the Sequoia has 13WL & 13WE stamping as the Tundra.

I'm going to go to the pull n pay this weekend and grab a set of each.

This will be going on my daughter's '97 4runner as her braking performance, even with the EBC Greenstuff pads aren't ideal.

I learned something yesterday at the junkyard. A '01 Tundra and a '01 Sequoia do NOT share the same calipers. One is the WE, the other one is a WL. However, a '07 Sequoia does have the WE calipers.

FYI.

As a casual reader of a few TBU threads over the years, I'm more confused than ever.

I need to do something about my brakes. I have quite the wobble and popped the front wheels off at lunch and found one rotor is shedding massive amounts of rusted metal and each rotor has different wear/pad contact areas that differ by 1/2 an inch. These brakes came with the truck about 3 years ago.

I'm tempted to just grab a set of OEM rotors, pads, shims, and hardware and call it a day. I suck at bleeding brakes on my MTB and probably would fare no better trying to upgrade the calipers. On the other hand I could get an off the shelf Powerstop/other full kit and give it a shot. To me, doing the Right Thing would be to go full 2005 Tundra OEM....but I don't even have a driveway currently.....

The TBU is rather straightforward, I thought. My 17yo daughter pulled it off easily, under my guidance. She is claiming to have better and more consistent braking now, which made me quite relieved to hear.
