same here for the calipers, dnw red. but fixed that link for you. not sure on the size

No idea on the size difference. I'm guessing the bigger one is for upgraded brakes from the factory. Check out what size power stops rear calipers are.

Looking to get drilled, slotted and ceramics for front for now on my nbs, I take it you all would suggest powerstop?

For rotors and calipers yes

looks like the 4wd caliper is bigger than the 2wd
might just go ahead and order the powerstops and scuff the pc and paint them with black high temp

I'd do the bigger upgrade now that I have 20's to put on but stoptech makes a sport kit for my truck that is a banging deal http://kspecracing.com/i-1685901.aspx

had heads and intake off last friday to swap lifters becuase one of them was ticking, would have been perfect timing to do heads, nnbs intake, camb, LTs, and tune. didn't have money for any of that so spent a whole day to replace one lifter.

Edit: replaced all of them, but only one was bad

Ofok

Bump this need better brakes now with bigger wheels and tires. So order front brake parts like an 05+ truck and rears like a 99-06 suv? Trying to price this out

Need larger rotors behind these wheels. Need brakes anyway... Looks like searching for parts on rock auto under 05 sierra 1500 gives parts for multiple brake codes. Then get cheaper price plus free shipping on Amazon. Calipers might need to be bought locally bcuz core charge. After I do that and stainless lines maybeee I'd consider hydro
