Brake upgrade questions

[Monstar_est87]

Im thinking of upgrading to the 3/4 ton calipers... but im not sure if the upgrade applies to 2wd tahoes as well... I see it on tons of 4x4... Also will I have 2 run 3/4 ton pads or stay with 1/2 ton pads..? I just gotta get all this for the right price and ill be in business...

So heres the math:
3/4 calipers+ powerslot rotors+ pads?+ SS brake lines =
stop on a dime wit 9cents change

I appreciate any feed back...

UPDATE!!!!
Ok so first off I didnt go with the powerslots bcuz I could bare spending $160 ea. on rotors, and the SS brake lines I read somewhere (i think by sunlitcomet or 99yukon) that they didnt make much differance at all so decided to hold off...


R1 concepts Drilled and slotted rotors/ 3/4 ton brake calipers/ Hawk high performance 1/2 ton pads


I couldnt b happier with the Hawk pads smooth braking and very low brake dust

Amazon caliper 35000 express GVW 8600 caliper, I painted red
. And my stock caliper


Rotors installed without a hitch


Everything installed... As of 4/7 I've been using everything for 5 days now and very noticable difference... I am very happy with the install...

LOL The only thing that is gonna make your Tahoe stop on a dime with 9 cents change is a hydroboost setup. New rotors, pads and calipers will improve it but not to that extent.

I am pretty sure you run 1/2 ton pads with the 3/4 ton calipers.

haha yea. that stuff will alll help, but it still wont stop like how your thinking. best bet would be the hydro like retorq said..

Ok so heres what I found... And I think this is another gr8 upgrade... Now I want to combine the to upgrades and stop like Fred Flinstone hahaha...
But I just want 2 gather enough correct info before pullin the trigger here...

Yeah combo would be a killer setup. I think I'm gonna do the hydroboost cause I have some clearance issue with my Vortec intake's vacuum source and the TBI fuel lines.

 

[Monstar_est87]

Either way we decide to go I think we're looking at about $700 bones, And the combo $1400, Atomics rear disc suggestion $1050... So looks like I got sum saving up to do...
