Master cylinder is different too.
They really don't change the braking much on an unloaded truck, will lock the rear up a little quicker. Real change is when loaded and under repeated braking.
Thanks D13
The front rotors are 1 inch thick and the drums are 11/2.the.the main reason I want to swap is the breaks I have now suck and I bought the bigger rotors drums and hardware.
