brakes are completely linear and the mid pedal mush is gone.
they hold while not grabby and keep on grabbing progressively and predictably through the range.
They dont bite during threshold braking and easy to modulate at the limit.
They dint grab at feather light pre empt pedal activation to engage rear lights, they skim smoothly.
the pads are coated with that pink rotor scouring compound and rotors are corrosion coated in and out.
A- due to a couple squeaks but still new though plus i couldnt help myself in testing them decently hard, to check for any high pressure leaks of course
as well as my diy bushing stud sleeves.and they look cool.

Siphoned out the gallon of "summer" washer fluid and replaced it with the winter brew. Had to remove the top elbow from the filler neck in order to get a tube snaked down there.
If you're still running summer formulation and it gets cold where you live, don't forget to swap it out.

I did EBC brakes a few weeks ago. Definitely a big improvement!!brakes are completely linear and the mid peddle mush is gone.

I wonder what comes from the factory. We are camping this weekend and expect some freezing temps.
My only ragret is the rear brakes size. Looks small.
Wonder if anything has a larger drop in like from a tundra tow package or something?

Good question that I have done zero research on. Although, with this recent upgrade to the EBC setup, I haven't felt the desire for more braking power.
I bet he had fun!!
This is giving me anxiety
Lol...I guess the labrador stayed at home the day of duck hunt?
Is this from that dingo piss creek i keep hearing about?
FYI per the FSM the anti-rattle spring is only needed on the bottom of the pad eyelets:
I love my ARB drawers. One of the best adds you can make.
I added the large Yakima offgrid (off grid off-grid) with the extension for the same reason-wasn’t ready to commit to a permanent roof rack replacement.
I’ve only had it up to around 60 mph but can also say the rack isn’t noisy. If it’s making noise it doesn’t protrude into consciousness. If you look for the noise it’s hard to say whether it’s tire noise (I’ve got relatively mild all terrains) or the rack.
I had one of the inexpensive Chinese baskets previously and it was audible and most speeds. Loud enough that I didn’t want to leave it on most of the time.
Also the mounting system is high quality and innovative…it has a sort of adjustable strap and then slide locking mechanism…and I installed their barrel locks for an extra $20…nice insurance.

I will get by….I will survive -Touch of Grey LC200
Added USB ports and a 12v power point on the rear of my center console. Not a lot of room under there!!
Would love to see how much light those rack mounted area lights produce.
