The calipers are front subaru L series ( the round body shape before the boxy shape). The brackets from roc70y. Rear rotors off a gq patrol. M12x 50mm bolts x 8 from memory, posible m10's, can't remember. from memory you need 80 series front brake lines ( the ones that go from the hub to the housing) to adapt the caliper to the existing hilux hard lines.ToNkA wrote:For the time poor, and mechanically simple; can someone do a quick write up of this setup.
What is needed to purchase (parts, models)
Remove all existing brake assembly so you are left with a bare axle with no brakes or backing plate. I never bothered with the hand brake but subaru front cables were the correct length to reach the hilux hand brake lever that is mounted on the drivers side underneath the car. From memory a bracket had to be fabbed up to adapt the two. I left the proportioning valve as is and i worked well.ToNkA wrote:What is needing to be modified (cutting, welding, handbrake cable)
Bleed lines, i used an 80 booster and MC and i don't know whether the hilux set-up would be sufficient.ToNkA wrote:What is needed to be done, once parts are fitted (break bleed, master cyclinder).
Good luck guys.
It worked great for me and i hope works well for you all. With the front brake set-up that i had i could lock up all 4 36" tyres at 60 km's if i wanted.
