5th gen swap, best calipers? Rotors? Oem pads already
Have already replaced passenger rear, now drivers side is sticking. Want to do a 5th gen swap but can't decided on calipers and rotors. Have new 4th gen centric rotors already, can they be used with 5th gen calipers on the rear? Has anyone found a way to rebuild their old calipers to keep them from sticking in the future? thanks in advance!!! Also found coated calipers for a few more $, anyone had better luck with those?

Debated quite a bit on a couple threads.

5th Gen 4Runner Brakes Upgrade (for 4th Gen 4Runner)

and
5th Gen Calipers


Here's what I went with for upgrade. Just installed, so no feedback yet except that the brakes feel great.

Cost of 5th gen brake upgrade, new shocks, coils, and diff oil change

Thanks, I've read about half of the 56 pages today. If I go aftermarket, I want to go local incase they fail, shipping takes too long compared to a quick drive.
