    Don't like the stopping power of the drum setup. Just wasn't sure if an upgrade was available.

    Do stainless steel lines
    Better rotors
    Better pads
    All front

    Rear barely has any use in stopping vehicle

    Don't waste your money

    ^ exactly. you will lock up the rear faster and cause more problems. If you really want buy a LSPV bracket from a lift kit and you will increase the amount of braking to the rear.
