Beefy brakes?

Just one question..............how the hell will shocks affect your braking ability??????

Doc

er typo, change the word shocks to brakes sorry

Hi!

I guess (!) that if you get really big shocks and stuff that make the vehicle go taller that it could become so tipsy that braking must be done with extreme care...otherwise the truck might go into "SUV mode" and roll over...

"SUV mode" I like that line!

If your looking for Larger Brakes because you got Larger Wheels and what it to stop better then it does there is a way that is not toooooo Expensive. You need at least a 18" wheel. Then you can get the BAER Eradispeed Plus One Rotors Setup. Basically it's a much larger Rotor that's also Drilled out at slotted so they look good also, and you get new Caliper Brackets that move the Calipers out farther. For your truck it's around $660 for the front, and about $500 for the Rear. Your Spare is a 16" so that wouldn't work any more also. It's still a lot of money, but it's still far cheaper then getting a setup that requires NEW calipers also.

I have 20's on my truck and it stops just fine. It would be a nice thing to get, but it's just to much money for myself right now for that setup, plus having to figure out what I would do for a spare. 20's, 22's the stock brakes should be just fine. If your going to get 24's or larger, then a Brake Upgrade is really Required.

Maybe he thinks it will help distribute the weight, so it keeps more on the rears instead of throwing it all onto the fronts?
