Raptor brakes on an xlt?

[Sharpie223]

I searched and didn't see the answer anywhere so excuse me if this has been covered.

Does anyone know if there is a reason the raptor brakes wouldn't fit on an xlt? They appear to be a bit larger.

Not towing, they feel light but manageable, towing, I feel like I have to slam on the brakes for normal stopping distance. This almost caused an issue while towing a lightweight boat (only about 1500 lbs). These need an upgrade but aftermarket are too expensive. With the 4th gen 4runners it was a simple swap to gx470 brakes, I'm hoping it will be a simple swap here.

I didn't know RR brakes were different than regular Rangers.
I have a RR and the brakes aren't anything special. I have wondered if the brakes off a Explorer ST would fit the Ranger. Those brakes are much better than Ranger brakes.
The phenomenal braking of the Explorer ST was it's biggest selling point for me but the performance was lacking.

Pretty sure the spindle is different.

I guess this didn't pay when I replied yesterday.
