 then I found out Tacoma with factory 15" wheels the brake swap wont fit my 15" steel wheels   

[bad luck [OP]]

well think I found my caliper issue mine have s13wm stamped on them were as the Tacoma 15" calipers have a ko15 stamped

Looking good. Lots of work. You plan on leaf conversion for the rear?

[bad luck [OP]]

 im going to leaf the rear just not sure if I should try 63's ive got 5" springs on the front I thinking of taking a leaf out of the front

[Willard]

I like the 63's, if your on a budget then yes. To match a 5" spring your probably going to have like 3 inch blocks.....im not a fan of blocks. All pro springs are awesome. there not as long....less hanging down on frame. Plus they flex like crazy. That's what I recommend and that's what I run. There not that expensive either. Wish I could afford some deavers lol.

i was thinking of getting chevy 3/4 or 1ton rear 63's then 2" blocks 7" shackles or double shackle see were it sits with that figured with pnp stuff ill be into the rear around $200

then I found out Tacoma with factory 15" wheels the brake swap wont fit my 15" steel wheels   

I had to add a  1/4" wheel spacer to get my calipers to clear on 15" steelies.  I'm planning to move up to 17" once I'm finished and hoping that will fix the need for a spacer if not there is only a little bit of grinding on the caliper that is needed to get them to fit.

My fror full float on the rear is worse and I had to add 1/2" spacers to get the 94' IFS calipers to clear.  Again, hoping that the 17" wheels will fix that and if not should be able to grind a little off the caliper to make it fit.

is the spot by the hub that needs grinding

found a 99 Tacoma in the pnp has the correct calipers for 15's they want 15each caliper an 12.50each rotor

[bad luck [OP]]

got the calipers/rotors off that 99 taco they use the banjo fitting so I got new brake lines for the 99 taco an 2 rear brake lines for a 94 4runner to extend the front hoses the rears are 14 5/8 inches an the other lines are 22 1/2inches should be fine

im going to put the other calipers/rotors back in the shed I might use them later on 

[bad luck [OP]]

  wheels fit calipers need alittle grinding by the wheel mounting surface but yay now I can start getting ready to get the rear up in the air


ill hang onto the other brakes till I need new tires ill switch it over to 17's an either 36's or 37's

[Dingman.]

Now you need to get the rear end lifted! 

[bad luck [OP]]
