Gentlefolk of T4R,
Some of you may know me from my adventures, some of the 3rd gen 4Runner tutorials on my web site, or from the TBU brake line kits that I started selling about six years ago when there wasn't another good (cost/quality) kit out there (and it's still the best!).
I realized recently that I can bring that same quality-and-cost-conscious approach to more than just conversion kits for the TBU. In fact, I realized - after looking around at a few of the "main line" vendor web sites - that I could significantly lower the cost of DOT-approved, USA-made, stainless steel brake lines for owners of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gen Tacomas as well as 3rd, 4th, and 5th gen 4Runners. And more, eventually, but I haven't been able to check out a 6th gen, yet.
To that end, I chatted with the infamous [MENTION=122940]ramonortiz55[/MENTION] to get his guidance, and I'd created a group buy over on TW.
After posting on TW, I got a question about also providing 4Runner lines, so now I'm opening up the group buy here as well. You can reply here or to the thread on TW, and I'll keep track of the count across both sites for discount purposes.
Here's how it will works:
Brake lines available and normal + group buy costs:
Note: All lines are available at stock length, or as extended lines to easily accommodate a 3” lift up front, and 8” of additional travel in the rear. No cost difference.
All lines come with new Toyota OEM brake clips for installation.
The group by will have a tiered discount, as follows:
Group buy rules:
And, as Ramon always says, "Sign up by replying to this thread. Don’t chicken out. You are either in or you aren’t. NO maybe, no waiting on the wife, gf or bf to get permission. There is enough time to make up your mind or find a doctor to sell your kidney or pawn your wife’s jewelry. If you are on the fence to see if it’ll go up to max discount before you jump in, you are HOLDING the group buy back. Don’t be that dude."
Other fees

The group by will have a tiered discount, as follows:
- 1 order - 15% off the entire order (TW Memorial Day sale!)
- 10 orders - 20% off the entire order
- 30 orders - 25% off the entire order
Group buy rules:
- An "order" consists of one "line item" in the table above, so if someone orders both front and rear, that counts as two orders for the purposes of the discount.
- The group buy will be open from 5/17-6/15. That's about a month. Reply below with what you'll be purchasing, and I'll add you to the list.
- After two weeks, I'll PM (via TW/T4R, or via email if you'd like to PM me your email when you add your name to the list) payment details to all parties and track payment in the list.
- Brake lines will be shipped out as payment is received (you don't have to wait for everyone to pay)

Other fees
- Shipping on any combined order over $100 is free to the USA (and its territories) so a full set of (4) lines is always free; otherwise, $4.99 for ground or $9.71 for Priority.
- I also ship to Canada, but given the turmoil around international trade these days, it's $34.99 for USPS (2-4 weeks) and $49.99 for UPS (1-week).
- Sales Tax will be collected based on the shipping address.
