Define what you mean by "big brake kit"

You can always do like I did and swap out the vac assisted brake booster for a hydraulic hydro boost.

Of you could buy SRT-10 spindles, calipers and rotors.

But the bigger questions is why do you want to have bigger brakes?

Buy a set of Drilled/Slotted Rotors from our Sponsor BrakeMotive. They sell all 4 corners w/ceramic pads for like $230 shipped. Your truck will stop on a dime!
Check them out in the Vendor Classifieds.
