Big Brake Kit For The Tacoma!!

[@jordanhendrickson1484]

Some of the best work I’ve seen on KZbin! Enjoy every video on these builds.

[@austinniemela]

Wow, thanks!

[@LOYLSkipSh0t]

SRQ fab makes extended brake lines for front and rear (i think three inches longer front) that i have in my 3g4r and they’re very good quality!

[@125sm3]

As a helpful hint, remove bleed nipple and use compressed air line to blow out/remove the pistons. Just hold a rag against the pistons to catch them lol.

[@ryanmacs2486]

I hope you know that you are putting out the best content. I hope you keep giving us more for years and years to come. Keep living the Toyota Truck Dream.

[@austinniemela]

Thanks man!! Glad you enjoy!

[@WeekendWrenchTurner]

Awesome stuff👍👍 This is the best upgrade I've done on the 4Runner along with converting the rear to discs. Keep up the great content🍺🍺

[@670fastcrf]

I have never disassembled calipers down that far!! I always thought they were filled with magic brake voodoo.. ha ha awesome content and information as always Austin! Keep on keepin' on!!!

[@3rdgenbestgen21]

😂

[@stevanrose7439]

Ha ha magic brake voodoo. Because of these videos I’m gonna rebuild my calipers.

[@alexei9216]

It gets just better and better, that's awesome

[@Jaws677]

A little of conpressed air would have popped those pistons out without any effort or risk of damaging the piston with screwdrivers and pliers

[@robertboyer5498]

Was just getting on here to say the same thing. 😂

[@garethl.2123]

I always leave a block of wood on the middle to prevent one piston from rocketing out before the others release.

[@motorhead-kf3nc]

a 4runner rear disk setup would be pretty sweet too 👌

[@brianross4057]

This is an easy kit, The bracket is From Australia but the rest of the parts you can get from Rockauto. www.designfab.com.au/buying/how-to/toyota-hilux-rear-disc-brake-conversion/

[@thomasmitchell6921]

Love your work. Please consider painting the bed cover in black! The white just seems out of place

[@richardwilkinson3594]

You put the clips for the braided lines on backwards.

[@cotisado16]

Yup, thats why they have a little bit of play.

[@austinniemela]

For factory lines yes, with these lines not exactly working with the mounts I had to improvise

[@たぁ紺緋]

Brake hose clip installation upside down

[@scottkailey1]

I can't believe how clean the frame on that truck is!!

[@genxiong2695]

Not the rear end 🤣I'm from Cali. I have a 2000 4runner 3rd gen and the only rust is old mud.

[@juanjosewtf7825]

Beautiful tacoma project, always waiting for the next video 🔧⚙️

[@stevanrose7439]

Is the new bigger calipers compatible with the stock wheels 🛞.

[@luvkountry]

What type of masking tape is used that can withstand the 400 degrees heat? Also is there any danger of the rotors becoming warped from the heat? Thank you for sharing your talent.

[@maddgoatee9708]

Killer brake up grade. Can't wait to see what's next.

[@LuisRamirez-wr4of]

Its hard to make things with one hand, great video 😀

[@MonkeyWithAWrench]

Powdercoat seems like a better way to go over a rattle can. How hard is it to get a good looking part compared to a rattle can?

[@danielbyars6]

Would you reccomend this on all tacoma's? Ive had issues with my brakes for a while...

[@austinniemela]

Yes this is a great upgrade for the 1st gen tacoma

[@Wyo_Roadhunter]

Hey I was wondering if you could post the part numbers for the hard brake lines and the brackets. I was going to buy the big brake kit but looks like I can buy everything separate for quite a bit cheaper. Thanks!

[@levimonsen1006]

There’s a guy on the forums that made a rear disc conversion kit using Shelby rotors

[@BigMike951]

What do you do with rear drum brakes ? Stick with oem?

[@1808lcp1]

Do you need to upgrade the brake booster for this mod?

[@andreykonovalov7306]

you can pull out the pistons by air pressure ;)

[@bigmackstruckstop9213]

Educational and learning about late model toyota tacoma trucks I like

[@yendortgone]

Tacoma calibers are notorious for premature failure i.e. one or two pistons seizing. Does this swap fix that?

[@jacobshulikov7993]

I work with UPS at PDX and we get entire airplanes full of Prismatic Powders and boy are they heavy

[@miguelromero8483]

Hey where can I go buy this kit for my 96 tacoma 4x4 thanks

[@johnpyle8027]

With the detail you're putting under the truck in places most won't see, do you have any plans for the paint on the truck? Man you put that second caliper together way faster! ;o)

[@bendaff9618]

Could I do this to a mk5 (2004) hilux?

[@Jrerecich]

Do you have a part number for the calipers? I’m not a huge fan of the powder coated red calipers you linked in the description.

[@MrQdawgs]

Everything you do is super clean!

[@arthurdent5903]

Have you tried the cerakote products ? They work great on rifle parts and are very durable.

[@austinniemela]

Yes I have! It’s a very good product!

[@abpsd73]

Too funny, I saw my comment a couple times as you were scrolling back and forth.

[@politicalcheddar686]

Will the 13WL brake calipers work?

[@koybuscho5880]

Is there a reason to not use cericote on brake calipers?

[@bmxtaz]

When you reassembled the calipers, What did you tourqe the bolts to on the caliper halfs?

[@austinniemela]

I couldn't find a spec, I just went tight plus a smidge haha

[@thescottishhammer7570]

Loving these videos. Quick question, what model of Kobalt air compressor are you using and do you like it?

[@austinniemela]

It’s a 60 gallon. I have had it for 5-6 years and hasn’t let me down yet!

[@thescottishhammer7570]

@@austinniemela Right on. Thanks!!!!

[@douglasthompson2740]

Rats! I was all ready for you to be doing a drum to disc conversion on the rear axle. Updates on how the Kei truck is plowing??

[@kinanramroop6365]

Good day, Awesome videos!! Will this work on a toyota 4x4 pickup?

[@cauchalookn]

Will these be a good upgrade the gen 5 4runner as well?

[@its_phillkuz]

Lovin the progress bro, good work. What do you do for a living?

[@shaikarshad1395]

Nice job bro show with name replacement car parts details work on doing u r work

[@James-of-all]

Another fantastic mod, excellent work sir!

[@jeffreygonzalez8544]

Do you know if this will work for the 2wd 5 lug version mine are trash

[@UteTrac]

What! No swap for the back brakes? well more like dog food bowle's I for the life of me don't know why Toyota puts em on the taco but no other Toyota truck?

[@johncourtneyscott2757]

They look nice

[@671967]

Congrats on the sponsorship!

[@austinniemela]

Thank you!

[@jimcatanzaro7808]

Beautiful kit I wish I wasn’t broke

[@273VIPER]

That’s attention to details 👌🏾

[@crlsvaldovinos]

Do they make this kit for a gen 2 taco. If they do. Do you have a link?

[@bigchrisb59]

Will this work on a 2022 tacoma by chance?

[@juanv2466]

Will this work on a 3rd gen Tacoma

[@scottkailey1]

Damit man you make me want to find a new first-gen ....mine is a rusted-out shit box!!

[@Jonathan-gz6tu]

Are those brand new oem calipers?

[@austinniemela]

No they are aftermarket!

[@oONeMesiS0o]

how long to you degas them?

[@dtemplman7816]

Does the 13WL work on a second gen 4unner

[@clk27us]

What type of media do you use in your sand blaster?

[@austinniemela]

80 grit aluminum oxide

[@kenny-d3944]

Hi I wanna do the upgrade to my 96 Toyota Tacoma but my Mechanics shop manager told me that the calipers are to big and I will have to get bigger rims other then the stock rims..??? Is this true ??

[@kikezurek34]

What the rotors brand from Amazon

[@geomatiq]

whats that green transparent tape called?

[@bungbentrip]

Very nice job dude...i love it👍👍👍👌

[@binhamda]

So wear that masking tape not melt in oven under 400 temperature!!?

[@acescape88]

Did you paint the frame? If so what did you use?

[@austinniemela]

Yes! I use napa chassis black or Eastwood chassis paint

[@rampagedingo]

Congrats on the 100k subs!!!

[@austinniemela]

Thanks!

[@jimcatanzaro7808]

The breaks are worth more then the truck

[@Anthxoy]

[@kikezurek34]

And what toyoyota parts are so I can go buy them at toyota dealer

[@flexapex9801]

Will this fit 3rd gen 4RUNNER?

[@austinniemela]

Yes it will!

[@nathankoroush7918]

you will be able to sell this truck for around 30grand when your done, easy.

[@donkeyrider]

I think I would go for 45k considering and see where it lands but yea 30k easy

[@nathankoroush7918]

@@donkeyrider Today's market, and 1st gen 4 door, you could be right.

[@AatAdam]

The clips are backwards

why doesnt 20:25 he powder coat the bolts?

[@leopoldodiaz5078]

Nice work

[@inferno1770]

[@triedandtrue1820]

Use original stock brakes, save some dough $

[@austinniemela]

Well that’s no fun!

[@diyjeff1838]

Love it!

[@awhipps]

I can’t believe you stopped on my name for the 9007’s. When I watched the previous video I thought you had said 9003. I love my T100, but it seems like there’s nothing you can do with the headlights.

[@Tony-tk4ht]
