TSM's rear disc brake kit: $ 250 (or so i can't remember exactly)
Ok as you know on a p/u no load or weight in the bed it really doesn't matter what brakes you have, on a rc it would benfit more so than a truck like mine where it would benefit all the time.
With 2k lbs in the bed the truck is able to stop so quickly from high a speed it will send anything not bolted down flying forward.
For me the biggest and most noticable increase in stopping distance was with weight in the bed or a lot of weight on the trailer, i am only sorry i never did any before and after comparisons with the factory brakes and the TSM brakes, but i can tell you the difference in stopping is huge, and i plan on putting them on the Jeep GC.
Install time if you are mechanically well experienced is like 1.5 hours from removing tires to installing tires (w/no air tools) , there is no need for any drilling or fabricating other than welding on new line holders if you opt for the braided stainless lines all around as i did, and if you opt for the 3/4 ton calipers a small amount of grinding on the little bump on the bottom of the calipers.
There are pic's in the truck section
