In this video we perform a front brake upgrade to a Lexus GX470. The upgrade is using calipers and rotors from either a Lexus GX460 or Toyota 5th Gen 4runner. When Toyota/Lexus made the GX460 and 5th Gen 4runner, they used a caliper that would accept a rotor with a larger thickness. The increased size of the rotor allows for better heat dissipation and thus less brake fade.
