    If you've done rear brakes on the gen 3, did you encounter any issues or hardware hang ups?
    Any pointers?
    Special tools?
    Is it just a straight forward as the front brakes? (Cuz I've done those easily)

    Im doing oem parts btw

    Thanks yall!

    Just added a cat protection shield.
    Ended up doing rear pads only. Only had 30,000 miles and discovered rear pads significantly worn. I did not change rotors because I figured if I had a problem I could replace them then. Removed the e-brakes and used a torx to back them off. The procedure to put the e-brake in service mode does not work on the Tundra. Made sure to lubricate the slides. Like you said just straight forward.
    I ended up getting new pads from rock auto. I got the Power Stop Z36 pads.

    I've had zero issues or noise with mine
    (Front & back)
    Replaced the front set @ 50k & 100k
    I do new rotors always, no turning for me

    Sometimes I hear a light squeek if I have not driven my tundra for a few days & moisture sets up on the rotors, dried out to light rust & the noise I hear is the rust being scrapped off

    Man o man I love this truck
    New oem rear brakes & shocks for $270 with shipping....thanks Fred Anderson toyota

    How’re those pads holding up? The couple we’ve put on customers cars have squeaked in the morning but once they warm up they’re quiet.

    They’re great! No squeaking from mine, good stopping power.
