...at darn near 50K miles, I am also deliberating on Toyota's Big Brake Kit as the extra weight from the rubber in my Destinations is undoubtedly causing more rapid brake wear.
Just curious, how many miles do you have on the Destinations?

Re: Dragon's Build (Taira)

i hope it really makes a big difference for 1,700. I did notice a huge difference between brakes on normal cars and my Brembo's

Re: Dragon's Build (Taira)

Bill, Taira is looking great buddy!...So what is your next MOD?

I can't wait to hit the trails with you and Taira at the upcoming Summit!, damn were going to have a blast. I'm looking forward to Black Bear this year, we have a great group thats going to run it. I just hope it will be open, I know last year, it didn't open until the very first day of the Summit. I love coming back here and checking out your build buddy, your such an inspiration to us all. Your one of the few "Leaders" in the FJ community, so it's always nice to see what is going on your doman.

Re: Dragon's Build (Taira)

Most recently, I extended the breathers from the transfer case and automatic transmission into the engine bay, to accompany the rear diff and e-locker breathers.
