Default where to buy brake stuff

Where can I buy online a set of DBA rotors (front and rear) and some carbon kevlar brake pads for my LX470?

Thanks,
Robert

Hey,

DBA...arent those stock replacements? Why not go with stock Toyota rotors and TRD brake pads?

Robert,

Well, if you really want slotted...you may need to buy new Toyota rotors and send them off to be slotted.

Default DBA rotors

DBA rotors are not stock...the are rotors made in Australia (Disc Brake Australia) - they are very popular in the LandCruiser community and they come with both slotted and slotted/drilled for our LX470's.

If you go to their site, they say there US distributor is Baer (www.baer.com). You can get both the front and rear rotors in either of the two styles I mentioned above....

If you really get stuck, go over to a Land Cruiser board and search thru there - I seem to remember other places that carry them, but according to DBA's site, there is only 1?...

Good luck,
Will

Will,

I did do some research and yes, the DBA look nice. I called a friend who imports and then looked at the DBA web page.
