    Default LandCruzier 75/78 series front brakes->TA22

    These are a 4sport front brake calipers and I can get them for free. (Old mining vehicles put out to pasture, sorry can't grab parts for others.)

    Just wanting to know if they are any good for a Hilux/pug style conversion or if anyone has had any experience with them. Is a mounting bracket required? I'm running 15" whels. I'm also able source a master cylinder for free and rear calipers.

    I've got a TA22 with a CA18DET motor and well, the brakes just aren't up to scratch.

    Cheers
    Jordan

    P.S: that pic might have to wait a little longer, no LV's on the service bay at the moment

    I don't know which models have what you're after, but you can start with measuring the bolt spacing - what you need is 90mm.

    I did a similar upgrade on my MKII Corona with Landcruiser calipers, they bolted straight on. I believe they were 60 series calipers.
