Video Transcript for Review of Timbren Vehicle Brake Parts - Front Wheels BES Brake Upgrade Kit - T47EV

Hi, everybody. Andy here, with etrailer. Let's take a quick look at this Timbren front wheel BES brake upgrade kit. Now, this kit has been designed to fit your 2022 to current Toyota Tundra. And on custom-fit parts, such as this kit, I do recommend goin' through our vehicle Fit Guide here at etrailer. Pop in the year, make, and model of your vehicle, and our Fit Guide will confirm if this kit will work for you or if we have something comparable that will work for you.

Now, upgrading your suspension will definitely improve the ride quality, help reduce sag when you're hauling or towing, and it's gonna make your truck overall feel more stable while you are towing or hauling. But it doesn't reduce the extra workload that's placed on your factory brakes. So if ya ever felt like your truck takes longer to stop when you're hauling a trailer, or maybe your brakes are wearin' out faster than you expected, or maybe that added weight is making you feel less confident when you're braking, that's where this BES brake upgrade kit is going to come into play. This kit is designed to give your truck stronger, more consistent braking when it's carrying those heavier loads. Now, these low-metallic OnyxBite brake pads are going to give you a strong initial bite and help eliminate brake fade that occurs with frequent stopping when towing.

So you're gonna notice more confident, more consistent braking performance on every road trip. Now, on the other side here are these multi-layered rubber shims. And that's gonna help stabilize the brake pads during braking, ultimately reducing vibration. As you can see there on your screen, the first photo there, I've got a breakdown showing you the construction of that multi-layer design there. And then the second photo there shows ya a brake pad with that shim pulled off, just to give you a closer look at the construction of the brake pad itself.

So that shim's gonna help keep brake noise to a minimum without sacrificing braking performance. So these positive-molded pads paired with these precision balance rotors are gonna give you smooth, even braking, and more consistent pedal feel. Speaking of these rotors, these are OEM-style vented rotors, as you can see here. So this is gonna help dissipate heat during repeated stops to reduce that brake fade when you're towing. And these are premium G3000 raw iron rotors.

And they feature Timbren's OnyxBond matte black coating on the hat, veins, and outer edges. As you know, heat is the enemy of brakes. So the OnyxBond coating has a heat threshold of up to 932 degrees Fahrenheit, which is about 67% better than the standard GEOMET coating most commonly used on OEM parts. This coating's also gonna help protect them from rust caused by road spray, moisture, and just overall winter driving, keeping your brakes looking cleaner between services without affecting braking performance. These pads also feature a bed-in coating, and that's indicated by the blue stripes that you see there. That's gonna transfer to these rotors to protect it during the first initial stop. So you're gonna be able to enjoy that consistent braking performance sooner after installation. Speaking of which, insulation's gonna be pretty straightforward. You're gonna get everything that you see here, the hardware, the lubricant, the pads, and the rotors. But if you think you would want help with installation, maybe you're not too excited about doin' it yourself, on this product page, underneath the photo section, we have a link that will take you to our installer locator. Click that link, answer the questions that it has for you, and that locator will find an installer in your area that etrailer has partnered with to help you with the install. But if you've already upgraded the suspension on your truck and you've got that smoother, more controlled ride, this brake kit is going to compliment that suspension upgrade by giving your truck the stopping power and the confidence to better handle those larger, heavier trailers that you tow or hauling those heavier loads. Together, it's gonna help create a safer, more capable towing setup and experience. But I think that's gonna wrap up our look today. Again, my name's Andy. Thank you for joining me.
