Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Yeah after some more research there are smaller subi calipers but they have the mounting holes closer together so they wouldn't fit on the brackets. I took the ute for a drive this afternoon. If ya push on the peddle just once ya get almost no brakes but even if ya give one more pump it stops good ...

Ok i just got news from the brake specialist. He put a new master on it (one that spoused to be from a rear disc non abs 80) and it still doesnt work. He's telling me ya need to pump it up to make the rears work and jinks it either needs a bigger master or smaller pistons in the rear. But he's alsO ...

Ok cool. When ya take the calipers off to bleed them do ya turn them upside down (like with the hole where the disc goes facing down) or just tilt them a bit. I ask cause I was looking at a busted subie caliper I had and by the look of it even though the bleed nipple is below the hose connection on ...

^^ do you have the same set up Struth

I don't know nothin bout gearboxes aye

If ya can turn the pinion turn it until ya get the axle to turn 1 full turn while counting how many turns of the pinion it took to get the one turn of the axle and that should be the ratio, if that makes any sense. Or ya could count the pinion teeth vs the crown wheel teeth.

Yeah boi
Winks

The rotors should be the right ones.
There's no nut on the back of the caliper either, but the piston winds in and out on a long stud inside the bore. Maybe that's what adjusts the piston.

Also I forgot to ask before. The mechanic had an idea about making some shims or spacers to go between the pads and the piston. The piston has about 3ish mm showing. I don't think it'll work but I'm no mechanic and I've never really done much if this before, but I dont wanna go spending money for no ...

Alright, I bypassed the lspv and bled the rear brakes with the calipers upside down with a block of wood inbetween the pads and it made no difference. I clamped off the rear again and had good peddle. I didn't test the brakes with the back clamped cause I didn't put the wheels back on. So it seems ...

I went and got some stuff I'd need to by pass the lspv. Hopefully it stops raining tomorrow so incan get on with it. Anyways can anybody confirm what model and year 80 series is front and rear disc, without abs. If it's not the lsvp the only thing else I can think of is it being the wrong master ...

The mechanic did find that the lspv was seized, I watched him take it apart and got it moving again but got no idea if it's working properly. I'm gonna see if I can by pass the lspv as soon as I can get to the wreakers to grab some spare lines. Is it as simple as connecting the line from the MC to ...

Ya wouldn't remember what model and year it was from by any chance?

Hey I've been trying to get the roctoy disc brake conversion working on my ln106 hilux. Its all put together like the instructions from roctoy's website say with the only difference in the master cylinder i used. The instuctions say use a master from a prado, part number jb9527. This part only has 2 ...
