    There was a guy who was getting the adapters made at a machine shop a while ago. The kit was using 4 runner 4 piston calipers (V6). And wilwood rotors and hats. The guy claimed that you would be able to lock up the front wheels at any speed. I went this route but haven't installed them yet. Try searching big brake upgrade. I don't think you can get the caliper adapters anymore but all you need is the proper nuts and you can mock up some and get a machine shope to make you some.

    I got a set of those brackets & run that kit.
    The kit from Revolution is a great kit & I was going to use that @ first. They have the rotor & hat as one piece as the stock Toyota rotor.
    The set up I run ,a Wilwood drilled /slotted 12.9" rotors ,Wilwood hats ,Wilwood bolt kits ,Toyota 4 Runner 4-piston calipers, & the brackets from the guy on this site,( he may still have some ,or be running another batch), all come to around the same price as the Revolution kit, $700 +
    Either way you'll have brakes that work great ,look great & increased stopping power!:cool:
