I am going to replace both front brake calipers soon. When I do this, the rotors will be turned and the pads will be replaced as well.

I am having my mechanic do the work with the parts that I provide, and so was wondering what other things (e.g., brake lines, etc.) do you guys recommend to be replaced when this is done?

Can you tell me what parts I need to buy so that I can get them before I head over to the mechanic shop?

Thanks.

Why are you changing calipers? Unless they are sticking I would just do pads/rotors/fluid, shouldn't need anything else.

Just inspect your rubber lines at the calipers. Good time to replace if they are cracked or dry.

The driver-side front caliper is sticking. So I am going to replace both front calipers and was wondering while the mechanic is doing all that, whether there were other brake related items (like replacing the lines, etc.) that should be done at the same time.

if your getting new calipers to the tundra upgrade, its more then better bang for your buck...

Yes, if you're going to replace the calipers and rotors, just do the Tundra brake upgrade.

EDIT: Sorry, just saw your other thread regarding the Tundra brakes. Carry on...

This time around, just going to do the calipers and pads, since I have Brembo rotors on there and I still have 15" wheels. Hence, no Tundra upgrade for me at this time.

Any recommendations to anything other than calipers, pads, and rotors?

Brake lines, cheapest you'll find them:

Sux about the caliper.......yeah, like UNR posted.....Goodridge lines are a very nice upgrade, had them on my WRX, and $100 is a great price for a full set.
