Thanks for the replies. I ordered new front an rear pads from St. Charles Isuzu and new (rebuilt) Isuzu rear calipers. No one seemed to have any advice on after market calipers. I plan to order new rotors all around from R1Concepts. I can't find much info on SS brake lines for a non-lifted VX. The I4X sound like they can work but I don't want issues with my mechanic if he thinks they are too long. If there is any more advice out there, please let me know soon. Thanks again.

Since i bought my VX i had issues with my brakes running long so my mech told me to replace all rotors & pads
I just purchase a full set of drilled rotors from this seller.
The pads i'll rather buy them in person.
Is there any pads that is recommended ?

OEM pads from isuzu are the recommended pads for performance/longevity/minimal brake dust

X 2...I've never had a vehicle that had such minimal brake dust.Originally Posted by etlsport
OEM = good stuff!

Just got off the phone with my Isuzu dealer regarding brakes - nothing was in stock and she would have to check the warehouse system to find stock rotors (not sure about pads), and they might even have to get shipped from Japan.
So... Check with Isuzu to see what parts you can actually get.

CALL MERLIN (with St. Charles Izusu)!!! I just ordered a set of front and rear brake pads from him, as well as some other stuff, and it all got here in under a week. Merlin's the man.
