In this episode, we are installing Powerstop Extreme brakes onto a 5th gen Toyota 4Runner. The brakes are a carbon fiber ceramic formula which offers the ultimate breaking performance for trucks and 4x4. The drilled and slotted rotors improve performance and maximize cooling whereas the zinc plating helps prevent against to rust.
Power Stop Front and Rear Brake Kit: amzn.to/2JZTG7R
The installation for this kit is quite similar to doing a standard brake job. However, it is slightly more difficult because we have to remove the calipers so that we can replace the rotors.
Trail4r Install Instructions: trail4runner.com/2018/03/26/r...
Total Time: 2 hours
Tools Required: floor jack, jack stands, 12 and 17 mm sockets, socket wrench, breaker bar, needle-nose pliers, screwdriver, C-clamp or channel locks, and rubber hammer or mallet.
Remember to release the E-brake when pulling off the rear rotors
*Disclaimer: Brakes are extremely important in vehicle safety and if done improperly could result in serious harm. I would highly suggest taking your vehicle in to get its brakes done if you do not feel comfortable working on your own vehicle.

Don't forget to clean/lube the slide pins and their bores on those rear calipers. Dow High Vacuum Grease is great in that application. Lubing all points that move besides the caliper pistons bears mentioning too.

excellent....just blimey excellent. Thank you for making a perfectly detailed, not long winded, not full of umms etc vid. One of the BEST vids out here!!!!!

Clear, concise and to the point. Thank you!

@RollinDirtyOverland 5 лет назад

Nicely done. I was looking for a shortcut to swapping the rear pads. Found it!

@mtnghostgunner8461 4 года назад

Put Power Stop Z36 Truck & Tow Brake Kit (pads & rotors) front and rear on my 4Runner a year ago (14 months to be exact) and just recently both front rotors are now warped. The brake shimmy seemed to start following a panic stop a week or so ago at ~70mph to avoid a deer, something that happens a LOT around here. Before that I had no issues with the Power Stops but now both front rotors now have a runout of 0.12mm or almost twice the listed factory max. Both rear are still fine at 0.01mm.

Another excellent, informative and well narrated video...

Excellent! Thank you!

Looks like for the front there are 17mm and 19mm versions for the caliper bolts. The 19mm are 137 ft/lb and 17mm are 91 ft/lb torque.

Many moons ago I turned wrenches for a living. I have never recommended new fangled slotted or drilled rotors. Just buy quality American rotors vs cheap Chinese rotors that often need to be turned straight out of the box. Or at very least buy the Canadian rotors. Believeme,, there is a difference. For most domestic vehicles,, there are good aftermarket pads and shoes readily available, but for Toyota, and many other foreign vehicles,, there is nothing better than OEM. When I did/do a brake job, I drive to an area of low traffic, be it a secluded neighborhood or an industrial cul-de-sac where i could easily do what I neeed to do. I get the vehicle to at least 35 and apply even pressure on the brakes until the vehicle eventually stops. I repeat this 10 times. By the time the customer picks up the vehicle the brakes are nearly seated in. I always remind them to take it easy on the brakes for the first couple hundred miles to let the brakes completely seat in, though.

Re: removing the rear drums: if releasing the parking brake still doesn't release the rotor, you may have to back off the shoes. To do that, the hole in the rotor needs to be at the

Thanks for the video, I just ordered this kit for my 2016 4runnner. Your ebrake issue would have stumped me, I'm going to have to remember to check for that.

@FranklinColmenaresSilva 4 года назад

Awesome, thanks a lot

@irfanspace 5 лет назад

the easy way , when u make video , try to shoot video while working on the second wheel , you will learn many thing by replacing pads or rotors on first wheel this will help you to make video while doing on the second wheel any way it was great

@DblA760 5 лет назад

Its been about 5 months now, how are they holding up? Any issues like the guy who commented he was on his 3rd set? Thanks

@frankarvia634 4 года назад

Would you recommend the power stop breaks after a year?

@rjjns 6 лет назад

Did you ever use the star wheel located at 6 o'clock position to compress the break shoe so that together with combination of screw and park braking shoe adjuster(star)wheel) rotor will be easy to remove.I live in Ontario and rust had built up circumferentially and its getting its way removing the rotor.Let me know. Thanks.

Installed those set on my 3rd gen 4runner with the tundra brakes and they did not last at all. The rotors warped eventually so I replaced them without slots and holes which is much better.
