Changing Out My Brakes

[MTM1]

Alright guys I could use your help on brakes. I really like what I've heard about R1concepts and I have read on here that many love them. I'm going to get slotted and drilled ones because I am tired of mine warping all the time. The question I have is do you have to buy the entire hub and everything or what? Never done brakes on a 4wd so does anyone have any advice

K2500(8 lug)rotors will separate from the hubs, here is a link for a how to:

You are very welcome.

Ps: Might want to invest in a press for that there(to remove lug studs), the money saved on labor(by doing it yourself)could easily buy a decent press.

Food for thought, best o luck!

Thanks. I think those slotted and drilled will be much better. Truck is heavy needs a good set of brakes

I would go with brake-motive over R1. They have drilled & slotted with ceramic pads for good prices on their ebay store. I have heard a lot of good things about them. Me ex-manager run them on every vehicle he drove.

make sure you torqued that axle nut to the proper ft/lbs or the bearing will fail
