I would like to buy an all brand new braking system, my brakes work fine, but I just bought this truck and it is a 1997. What all would I need exactly? I would not mind changing everything including ABS parts just so I know that everything is new. It is a 20 year old truck almost, but rust free and seems like it is well cared for, regardless I want new.

Any help please? I know I would need, calibers, rotors, brake pads, what else? I am talking about new lines and everything that has to do with braking. If anyone could help I appreciate it.

Actually the most important part of the system to replace, and sadly the most difficult and tedious part to replace are the brake "hard lines".

When I rebuilt my 1987 in the summer of '07 I replaced all my hard lines in stainless steel,
I wanted the security of knowing that unless my truck was attacked with anti-tank munitions I would not need to replace any of it ever again.. should my truck get buried in a landslide or lost overboard on a ferryboat someone 10,000 years from now will be mystified by the shiny metal tubing....
