Has anyone had any issues getting aftermarket rotors and pads for their gen 4? These trucks have a 309mm rear rotor however Adavanced only sells 330mm rotors which I only know because I tried to do a rear brake job and found out the hard way (they were way to big). Because I need my truck for work tomorrow I figured I'd put it back together with the old rotors and just replace the pads. However, the pads Advanced auto list for this Taco is also wrong IE to thick. Again, I know this because I tried to install them. YES, I put the truck into brake replacement mode which releases the rear parking break and allows you to compress the calipers. Tomorrow I'll head to Toyota with my tail between my legs and buy OEM parts. Just wondering if anyone else heard of this issue, IE aftermarket rotor / pads for the 4th gen. FYI, I have a 2024 TRD Sport

I wasn't aware, but these articles state Toyota provisions different-sized discs.

"There are two different front brake sizes for 2024-2025 Tacomas: smaller ~320mm rotors for base trims (SR, SR5) and larger 340mm rotors for higher trims (TRD, Limited). You must verify your size before buying."

Oh good to know. I just purchased Powerstop pads for the front & rear. Let’s see if they fit

Just finished replacing the front and rear pads. The fronts are super simple. Rears are also relatively easy.
