Alibaba china big brake kit for trx

[Fifty]

What is sad is the white labeling of brake calipers, rotors, hats and brackets.

“Name” brand, alibaba origin.

These may be good. May actually be made in the same place as other kits.

To be seen

2x what FIFTY said. There is a SCIENCE to replacement calipers, based on piston/rotor coverage and system pressure. Its not one size fits all.
Rick is running the Rough Country BB setup with good luck.
Tough to make an argument FOR "low cost brakes" on a high HP truck. Kinda like Jumbo Shrimp. Even the big name after market (Rotora) brake companies have issues with corrosion after a couple winters and need to be rebuilt. I need pads and rotors, so I am debating between OEM all around or the EBC GD rotors and yellow stuff pads. Alibaba imports are not on my radar.

The Rotora kits that need to be monitored for corrosion are the HD Challenge units as they are ductile iron and come in at a lower cost. The Street Challenge kits are forged aluminum and only need to be monitored for leaks and a preemptive rebuild can be done at 3-5 years of use, but not a requirement. Rebuilding these calipers are SUPER simple.

The ones I got on order are supposedly forged fronts. Rear are cast.

20+ years ago I had a warehouse with extra space i was considering importing rotora bbk they wanted me to invest buying 100 sets at a time and I recall the fob shipping was china.
