Treypal's Raptor Build and Prep

[vanilla_gorilla]

Did you replace all 4 rotors or just the front and put new pads all around?

Brakes are in. Man do they stop! A few odds and ends left, and we are off to Baja on Thursday!

I think I'm getting a set of these. Look forward to your feedback on how they stand up to Baja!!

Who did you gets those brakes and rotors from? Someone already asked did you fronts and rears or just the fronts?

 

[treypal]

I did front rotors and pads only. The rears were in great shape, and dont do much anyhow. I purchased them online from autoanything.com Orielly's shows them on their website, but no one at the store could figure out how to order them.

The stopping power is noticeably better, combined with the Grabbers the truck stops really well offroad.

Did San Felipe to Bay Of LA, Across to Catavina (sp). Camped on the pacific a few nights. hit contingency today, now we are back in San Felipe for our chase tomorrow. Truck is running great, totaled a mirror on a cactus, smashed a few of my duallies on a different and unrelated cactus...

Made it home. Zero flats on the generals, towed home a few hundred pounds of mud, but great trip overall. Got some front suspension video that I am working on.
