I installed the GW big brake kit in 2015, which used Toyota discs, I believe. One issue I had was the caliper bolts came loose - these are the bolts on the brake caliper itself , NOT the bolts the that mount it to the spindle.� Also, the 16" steel wheels I had installed would not clear the calipers. Had to go with alloys, and the problem with alloys is they are too wide - forced me to go to a larger tire which can cause clearance issues. YMMV.
