trading in my truck for a Subaru WRX Sti sounds real nice sometimes to me....which would solve my lack of power issues, leaking valve covers, rubbing tires...etc
Do you think those 35's will rub on that Subaru? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

The Front Range kit is WAY more than just a rear disk kit. That is why its so expensive.

If you just want rear disks, kits like from Allpro and Sky Manufacturing are the cheaper/simpler way to go.

Will both of those those fit the T100? It looks like they are made for the Hilux Pickup and 4runner.

It should fit since toyota makes most stuff interchangable. I would like to do this eventually along with the tundra brake upgrade. My question is doesn't the T-100 come up with a bigger master? I thought it would since its a bigger truck but idk so could some please clear this up?

what do you think you will get from a tundra? T100 has the bigger master.

Would these kits preserve ABS?

isn't ABS a sensor in the third member?? if so, it should't change anything.

I have to dbl check but I believe that the 199mm Tundra calipers are bigger than what comes on our Trucks stock but then again it wouldn't be the first time I've been wrong <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" /> Though does anyone know if the master in the T is setup for 4whl disk or does it still need the FJ80 master for the dual anti flow back valves? I know Chilli runs his without.

Yes those kits fit a T100, and yes I think ABS would still work.


And a bigger master does NOT mean stronger brakes. In fact, if you left everything else the same and only changed to a bigger master, your would LOSE braking power.

Read here for more info on that:
http://home.4x4wire.com/erik/4runner/brakes/#Basics

The master is only a piece of the system, and its size is matched to the other parts of the system (caliper piston size, pedal leverage ratio, rotor diameter, etc.).

Yes, a Tundra uses a smaller diameter master cylinder (and a smaller brake booster too!), but a lot of other stuff is different as well. You couldn't say which vehicle has stronger/better brakes without a whole lot more information.

FWIW, I was considering downsizing the MC in my T100 from 1" to 15/16" for increased braking power to make up for the increased tire size/weight. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/nana.gif" alt="" />
(never got around to it though)
