Here's a list from Micaiahfied don't know if you saw his writeup.

$79.00 –Brackets + spacers – Great Lake Off Road

$23.99 –Rotor – Autozone- 5523

$ 7.99 –Caliper Pins – Autozone- H5004
$ 7.99 -Hub Seal – Autozone- 417158
$ 7.99 -Hub Seal – Autozone- 417158
$11.00 –Brake Hose – O’rielly- BH73242
$11.00 –Brake Hose – O’rielly- BH73242
$44.99 –Brake Pads - Autozone- 0052.20 (PFB carbon metallic)
+_______________________________________________
$257.91

Other things you will need or explanation…
- 11/16 Metal drill bit to drill out the stud holes on the rotors
- 2-1/2 hub socket so you can get the hub off and torqued back on correctly
- someone to cut the spacing material sent with the brackets (mine were 1.75inch.
- I sat in O'Rielly for at least 1/2 hour searching through the boxes of brake hoses to find one that would work and not be too long, hopefully this saves you some time.
- i've been using the performance friction pads for a while now and love them.. when i started the warranty was 2 year, now it's lifetime. I know the lifetime warranty actually scares most away but they are great pads. fronts for a 2wd were only 26.99.

I'm smiling ear to ear, this truck hasn't stopped that good in who knows how long, heck i was even able to get the RWAL to kick in, 60-0 stopping distance is about 1/2 what is was (rears were NOT working properly, everyone should not expect that drastic of a difference.)
