New Brake Parts Advice Wanted

[TechnoPope]

Due to a recent brake failure on our '01 VX, I need to replace my rear calipers, rotors and pads. At least that is what the mechanic told me.

Any recommendations on replacement parts?
Should I do the front at the same time?
Would this be a good time to install stainless steel brake lines?

I received a parts price quote from the garage that seemed reasonable, but I would prefer to use good aftermarket or Isuzu parts.
Any advice or shared experience would be appreciated.

stock brakes are pretty awesome.. im also a big fan of stainless lines, only problem with doing them now is you dont get to feel the difference as much because everything changes either way i dont regret the 200 i spent on my SS lines or the 160 i spent on my OEM brake pads

Thanks for the reply. Where did you purchase your brake lines?

independent4x... actually they have gone down in price!

i think that AZ vehicross offers some for less w/ more color options but i dont know anything about those, these indy4x ones are made for 3" lifts but im running mine on a stock vx with no problems (been on for like 6-8 months now)

Have you been under it lately to check for any chaffing? A concern with running longer hoses.

what do you mean by chaffing? i have been under there recently, they look just like they did when i first installed them
