NAPA Bucket Sale
Was looking at the sale as an option, but it is May and the bucket sale ended in April. The clerk said they have the sales a couple times a year. Would like to do the brake job now...will have to figure out second best option...I know the Durablast are $4 bucks less at Autozone than the $81 at NAPA. Would like to convert my 2000 4Runner to the Tundra brakes. Was just in the process of upgrading to towing grade brakes when I started considering this option.

From a dealer presumably as those are OE numbers, correct?
I am about ready to pull the trigger on the Tundra kit...

Wagner ThermoQuiet pads are very nice. I highly recommend over the factory pads.

Powerstop seems to be the most popular and reliable so far. I didn't go with slotted since they are more common on performance vehicles that produce a lot more heat from their brakes.
Sorry to post on an old thread but I have a question that I can’t find any info on.
I recently bought a 99 Highlander edition. I absolutely love it. It’s been supercharged and runs awesome. The only problem it has is the front rotors are warped (at least one is). So I wanted to replace them but have obviously heard the tundra upgrade is the way to go. I am on a pretty tight budget so I’m debating whether I should upgrade or not. I don’t tow and don’t plan on running anything larger than what I have now (265/75/16). However, I saw a guy online is selling his rotors, calipers, and pads off his 2008 tundra because he is doing a TRD brake upgrade. I am wondering if the second gen tundras brakes are the same as the first gen brakes that everyone is using for the upgrade. He is selling them for $275. From what I can tell it is everything I need for the upgrade so the price seems great. I’m just not sure they would fit and I’ve searched everywhere and can’t find any info on the second gen tundras.

I would recommend just getting some Brembo rotors and Akebono pads. 2008 Tundra brake parts are not known to fit these, and I doubt they will. Too large.
