So that is a toyota stock front rotor, mounted behind the axle flange?
what size bore is the master cyl. or should I say what did it come off of, I still have the solid rotors and calipers off my parts truck that are being swapped out for the vented rotors and ifs calipers and would like to run rear disccan we get a parts list please
please find out how much he would charge for the caliper mounts and the master cyl. adapter, you can e-mail me directly rottieonr@verizon.net thankyoulooks sweet and I also like the factory part not to mention 4 pistons are better than 1
oh wow! thats a nice set up right there. i may have some extra calipers after i swap axles out for my new ones. hell, if they'd sell me just the brackets, id also have a spare set of new rotors too! this would make for a mega cheap conversion!
here's a question to ponder.... if the front calipers will bolt up then that means that the ifs calipers will bolt up and that means you could use the vented rotors....things that make you go hmmmm...is this possable or am I just going for the overkill, see I have problem when I build something that will do things it's not supposed to I tend to make sure that everything is better than it has to be, for example when I get the stroker motor built for my truck it will be pushing well over 700 hp and if you have that much power you need better brakesand from the looks of that bracket you could have dual calipers on the rear now thats braking force
I'm going to look into the master cyl. upgrade, gm made some master cyl's that had diagonal brakes, the advantage to this is that both reservoirs are the same size, the easiest way to identify a diagonal master cyl. is the partition is on an angle, that way each part fed 1 caliper and 1 drum, otherwise you will have to check your fluid level on a regular basis, as for locking the rear brakes if you sneezed on the brake pedal, the adjustable proportioning valve would take care of that, sure it would reduce the pressure to the rear but if their were 4 calipers with a total of 16 pistons and 8 pads you wouldn't need much pressure the difference is your not working the brakes as hard, the result would be cooler running brakes, so not only would brake fade not be a problem but your pads and rotors would last foreverhell with a setup like that stopping 44's would be cake, also if you think about it Toyota had a problem with the rear brakes locking up thats why they put in the load sensing valve, that way if you were empty your rear brake action is light and if your loaded heavy you get more rear brake application
