looking for a big brake kit for 05 3500 dually

I am looking for a big brake kit for my truck and can't find one. Does anybody on here know of one? I need the extra stopping power as I am getting sick of replacing pads. I am now on my 3rd set with 52k. It is getting expensive.

EGR Performance Brakes

Not sure if you checked these guys out or not, but I used them to replace the brakes on my 98 1500 quad cab 4X4 and they were excellent.

Do you have a manual or auto? Didn't see it in your sig. If it's a manual you might consider an exhaust brake. I had one on my 01 auto, but I had a beefed up tranny with a smart cont. to lock up the converter. I'm going to put on a Jacobs e brake on my 05 nv5600.

Undy, You need an e brake. I have 140 k and I'm on my second set of rotors and 3rd set of pads. I haul up to 37 k combined 24 k most times. two of my trailers had no brakes at last inspection (pads, magnets, wiring) Electric trailer brakes suk. Never had problem braking. Your driving style sounds like it needs some adjusting along with the brakes I'm not one to talk though. The exhaust brake is sooooo much safer and is so easy on the service brakes. Best safety investment for sure. ks
