    Re: 4 piston calipers

    If you have 11" brakes already, why not use the 2nd Gen Acura Legend GS calipers, They are the same design as the xterra caliper, they will take the pads you already use, and they bolt to your existing bracket? Has this been covered already? I havent been on the board in 8years so I don't know where we are.

    Because the Xterra calipers have more pistons, meaning more contact to the pad. More stopping power, basically. The legend calipers have been covered, and a great upgrade. Thanks for the info, though!

    I wouldnt suggest to dril extra 2 holes in the bracket.. you only weaken its structure, just think about, thats the only thing that stopping you, you dont want those to fail.

    ..dude, u lost me. The legend gs calipers have 2 pistons just like the xterra calipers. It's good to see guys doing that though!
