Chops Posted June 23, 2017 Author Posted June 23, 2017 So i gave my local toytota that part number and tbey got the kit in the next day, but it doesnt include pistons and mine are knackered. Toyota dealership recon theyll have to be flown over from japan and cost like 35 quid each :s Anyone able to point me in the direction of cheaper more local alternatives? Quote
Chops Posted June 23, 2017 Author Posted June 23, 2017 Ye, but as i dont have the part number for the calipers etc i dont wanna fuck up and buy the wrong ones. i was hoping someone might have the correct part numberto avoid this. Quote

Chops Posted June 23, 2017 Author Posted June 23, 2017 Measure the old ones. Genius, but i binned them a long time ago corgetting which calipers they were from.Morgey to the rescu3 again should be able to sort something better out from that lot, thanks again! Quote
gorganl2000 Posted June 26, 2017 Posted June 26, 2017 (edited) what's printed on the back of your caliper?38T25or40T28 anything along those lines?? they are different twin pot set ups....levin, st202, st185, etc....different piston sizes and you can measure the caliper space itself where the pistons fit....so you have all you need to get the correct size Edited June 26, 2017 by gorganl2000 Quote

gorganl2000 Posted June 27, 2017 Posted June 27, 2017 sometimes the numbers on the back of the caliper also tell the size...then you can also verify with the vernier Quote
