Makes more sense now

So found this today: http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/toyota-truck-4runner/1765073-longer-ifs-wheel-studs.html

Do I need to run longer wheel studs with the taco brake upgrade, or was that simply for that guy's case?

[58rag]

I did not need longer studs when I did the tacoma rotors. HOWEVER I am running steels wheels. You may need longer studs with aluminum wheels.

Looks like it just depends on how thick your wheel is..

I figured out a route to take. I am going with 3rd gen 4Runner calipers instead of Tacoma. They have the regular fitting rather than the banjo and have a 15" wheel offering.

SqWA, what backspacing are your rims? Looking at changing from V6 calipers to the 3rd gen in order to ditch the 1.25" wheel spacers due to a rim having at least a 4.5" back spacing

That's what i have

So I'm running 4.25 BS and I opted to utilize 1.5 spacers all around to get out even wider. My 3rd gen 4Runner calipers had to be ground down a lot to clear my 15" rims. This was before running the spacers that is.

I have been reading this and have a 93 with a 4 cylinder. Everything i have read references the v6 caliper. Is there a reason the 22re calipers won't work?. If V6 calipers are needed are any year IFS V6 caliper good or are the Tacoma's better?

[gnob]

The difference isnt really V6 vs 4cyl.
There are two versions. One has two large and two smaller pistons(4cyl). The other uses 4 large pistons. (V6)
Your 93 may very well have the "v6" calipers.

[OOPS]

In 91 or 92 they started using the "V-6 calipers" on all models!!

I put 95 4Runner calipers on a pair of new birthday gift vented rotors on my 85 Hilux long with the proper master cylinder, my brakes work very well. I was going to mount the old discs in the rear but, I do not like the parking brake options that I can afford so I'll just stay with the larger diameter 87 drum brakes on the 87 axle housing in Cecil.
