Any suggestions on brake upgrades for a 2001 GMC Yukon XL SLT?
After renting a 2017 Ford F250 Super duty diesel to tow home my 2004 Gulfstream TT 32' I realized my Yukons brakes may be a little inadequate, I don't want to rely on the TT brakes more than nesassary, basically I want the Yukon to be able to safely stop my TT from 50 mph without the trailer brakes and without over heating, I don't plan on not using the trailer brakes properly I just want to make sure if something goes wrong with the controller or TT brakes I still have the safe ability to stop, my Yukons brakes are in good working order but seem under powered for the task, I was thinking better rotors drilled and or slotted, and better pads it calls for ceramic OEM I see police grade brake systems I can buy , any ideas on how to improve the braking performance without replacing everything ( eg: bigger rotors, new calipers) I was hoping to use stock sized parts just better materials. Thanks
