Brake Job Write-Up on 2nd Gen??
Hey guys first off i'd like to thank anyone who views and or replies. This site is hella cool! Gotta love Toyotas!
Im thinking of doing my own brake job, i looked in the tech write ups and i cant seem to find the page that would have it. Im either blind or just ignorant to the search engine. So can anyone help on how to do it, is it easy? or should i just take it in. Also i was wondering what kind of <brand> brakes everyone has. I kind of thought about maybe getting "better" brakes than just the usual....any ideas or suggestions are appreciated Thanks everyone~!!!

BTW it is a 94' 4Runner V6 3.0L if that matters at all. Noone does their own brakes?~ I would think the tricky part is bleeding the brake line...

This helps a little. http://www.4x4wire.com/toyota/maintenance/
I use OEM brake components. If this is your first time doing a brake job, it may take you a while, maybe half a day. It's easy and straight forward, but time consuming. Make sure you pick up a 54 mm socket.
