60 Series brakes on a hilux

Post by lux000 »

Just wanting to know will 60 series rotors and calipers fit on the hilux hub ?

Would it be an upgrade to the solid rotors and standard calipers i currently have ?

Thanks Gav.

Tires are like boobs, they always look big until you have played with them for a while, then you just want a bigger set

What Hilux?

Using V6 4Runner (or turbo Surf) calipers is the easiest front upgrade, though you'll need the master cylinder to match.

Front:
1. 80 Series master cylinder mounted upside down for the hoses to reach
2. V6 4Runner or 80 Series calipers. Note the 80 Series do have differences so you need to make sure it is the series that has the calipers the same as the V6 4Runner. Caliper rebuild place can help you out there.
3. Pedal linkage needs some mods to mate up
4. Braided and extended lines (flush the system while your in there)
5. New pads

Rear:
1. IFS axle (has larger rotors)
2. Braided and extended lines
3. New pads (rotors if required)

Gives excellent stopping power. First time i braked i almost put myself through the front windscreen :lol:
Kind Regards,
Brad

Im running the surf 1" master and booster, with hilux rest, and slotted rotors and its fantastic.

I have a set of surf 3.0TD calipers sitting down on the halfcut, but i only just rebuilt the hilux ones, so i havent fitted the bigger calipers yet, i'll rebuild them and install them when these current brake pads wear out :D

I am seriously looking at a full floating rear conversion if the aussie dollar improved, purely for getting 4 wheel disk brakes!
