Brake Upgrade Questions

[slicksierra]

Alright so I priced out the whole thing. $633 shipped for basic delco rotors with the black e-coat on the hats, remained calipers with brackets from advanced, Wagner thermo quiet pads and stainless lines up front. Might have to do fronts first then rears rofl

Might as well do the Powerstop front kit KC2067 for 350 then do the rear KC2066 for 316 only 30 bucks more than what I posted above

I looked cheapest place is jegs. Question of the hour. Can I use my stock front calipers and just buy 05 caliper mounting brackets to run the larger rotor. Would save almost 100 right there.

My truck will be needing brakes soon. I figured for the front I'd upgrade to the 05+ calipers, pads, and rotors and for the rear I'd upgrade to 99-06 SUV rear brakes with dual piston calipers, pads, and rotors.
Can anyone verify that the front 05+ rotors are the same as the rear 99-06 SUV rotors? I will be doing drilled/slotted rotors, PowerStop shows the same part # (AR8645XPR) for front 05+ and rear 99-06 SUV rotors. I want to make sure that's correct before I drop coin on these.

I will most likely be doing EBC pads. I want ones with the least amount of dust. Which green stuff pads dust less? The 6000?

Lastly, what's everyone recommend for stainless steel brake lines? Thanks

This kit was suggest to me by Brandon. Might be another option for you guys. I plan on purchasing this once the dollar is much better.

I was looking at this Justin and yes it is an option. I bumped the thread cause I need new brakes and wanna do the 13" rotors upfront. This is a nicely priced kit for what you get.
