Now don't get me wrong...I am sure the stock brakes will stop the truck, but if your in heavy stop-n-go downtown traffic and have to slam on brakes...you may run into the back of someone.

But, on the axle setup it looks like larger calipers which should help.
yeah i understand what your saying and thats why i also upgraded

Nice! I went the slotted performance rotors because they told me the drilled ones are more likely to crack and break vs just slotted rotors. I'm sure they both do great and cool the brakes down. What kind of pads did you go with?
