I can attest to this upgrade. Before, it seemed I was replacing rotors all the time and I'm a conservative driver. Then in 2017 I did this, and when I last looked at the rotors a month or so ago, and they still look new with no visible wear - 7 yrs later in 2024. Best upgrade I ever did!
Another satisfied customer 😂🍻
Red calipers look great! Excellent job!!
Thanks. I was a little shocked when I first took them out of the box. 😂 They look great now with the contrast of the darker wheels
I am going to do this same upgrade in the fall. I really like the look of the red calipers. Thank you for sharing all the parts and information.
The red has really grown on me. What wheels do you currently have on your 1st gen?
@@azorianification I have the stock 16 x 7, 5-spoke rim. I watched another video on doing the upgrade and that person had the same rim. Said it fit without any issues. If not, It's a great excuse to get new rims.
Perfect. What after market wheels are you considering? Going with a stockish tire size or getting something bigger?
Another great video. Keep it up!! 👍 👍
🍻
Great job, very informative. Do you tow with your tacoma? I have 01 taco and tow quite often up to 3500 lbs. What difference did you notice with the braking when towing?
Thanks. I don’t tow but there is a noticeable difference now when I have a lot of weight in the bed. I went with the Oem pads but you might be even more performance with an aftermarket tundra pad as well
I just did the 13WL brake up grade on my 2002 4runner 2wd with stainless steel lines. Yea the pedal is a bit soft after the break in procedure. Did bleeding the whole system bring your pedal back any better?
How old is your brake fluid?
My first gen has stock 15in wheels will do you think these brakes would clear or would I have to upgrade to 16s or 17s?
I don’t believe you can do this swap with 15s. I’d suggest an upgrade to 16in. They will even clear the stock wheels to give you an idea of what you could upgrade to. Sticking with the stock OEM brakes just isn’t worth it when you compare the prices between stock vs tundra.🍻
Does the pedal feel mushy because it's still on OE master cylinder? Have you tried panic stopping on it yet to see if it flows enough fluid to brake well?
It feels the same to be honest. I still need to flush and refill the brake fluid. I would imagine that will make a noticeable difference since I’m overdue. I can lock up the wheels if needed
Love the vid! How much did this upgrade cost?
About $600. Worth every penny
I wonder if this would all work and be similar with a 1st gen 4runner
I don’t see why it wouldn’t. They share many of the same components
Are the new hard/soft lines required for the tundra calipers? Or can the stock ones work?
Since you’ll be removing them, this would be a good time to upgrade to Stainless steel lines. As for the hardlines, I’m not sure if you can reuse the old ones or bend them to work. Replaces are cheap enough. I wouldn’t want to reuse old brake parts if you’re going to replace everything.
What size bore is your master cylinder in Your Tacoma?
Still using the stock master cylinder
What did you do to the rear drum brakes ? Oem ?
Besides a refresh, I left them stock. In the future I may upgrade them from drum brakes to disc brakes. For now the Tundra brakes do most of the work
@@azorianification thanks brotha
@BigMike951 no problem!
What condition do you drive in. Everything is heavily corroded.
It’s very light surface rust. For a 22 year old Tacoma, this frame is in great shape.
Was that a red top SR20det?
I’d have to rewatch the video but it’s possible there may have been a shot of a couple of SRs I have in the background
Good eye
do you still have rear drum brakes?
I do. I haven’t decided what to do with the rears. Do you still run drums in the rear?
@@azorianification yes I am looking to upgrade my front brakes soon and thank you for your response brother✌
Nice. You’ll be happy with the tundra upgrade if you go that route 🍻
Are these the 199 mm?
The 13WL are 231mm and the 13WE are 199mm from my understanding.
Can i reused the old brake line ?
You can. It’s a perfect time to replace them if they don’t look great
@@azorianification just bought the set, but confused about hose pressure line bolts can fit the tundra caliper brake?
@ThangNguyen-xl2vk where did you buy the brake line set?
Do you have 881s or 882s currently?
Currently running the 881s. Do you have the OME springs?
@@azorianification I have 881s on my truck right now but it’s sitting at 36”and the rear is at 39” and I saw yours are close to 38”. I’m wondering if this is bc you put on new KYB strut mounts maybe? My stock ones are pancaked.
That’s possible. I figured I should just replace them at the same time. What size tires do you have?
@@azorianification I have worn down 31s on currently
How long have you had the springs on the truck?
will these clear 16inch wheels?
Most 16” wheels will fit without a spacer. The 1st gen tundra came with 16” from the factory. Are you running OEM wheels, or aftermarket?
@@azorianification I made this comment before I got to the end and saw you were also using 16 inch wheels. I don't own a tacoma, I am a car weirdo who watches the most random car videos. Today I learned there's a kit to put Tundra brakes on a tacoma.
Nothing weird about that. I’m always watching videos about cars I don’t currently own or never will. 🍻
@azorianification I'm curious about this as well, I'm running the factory 16 inch wheels that came on the trd in 02
What offset/back spacing is that wheel?
Literally did this to my first day in Tundra. Replaced the front calipers and now I have zero brake pressure. I bled my brakes and I put the brakes on the right sides and nothing. Not sure what's going on
Still having issues? Are you sure there is no air in the lines?
@@azorianification Yes I am. I'm baffled at this point. I've bled my brakes like 30 times already and still zero pressure. It builds up when my truck is off but as soon as I turn it on all the pressure goes away
Are you bleeding all of them? Front and back?
@@azorianification yup did all four had my wife pump the brakes for me while I was under the truck did all four sides and still nothing. I've never had this happen to me.
@robertrodriguez-ub5cf are these new calipers?
Why does it say great cheap upgrade, this makes me mad, I went in to the shop thinking $200-$300 is cheap upgrade for red bigger calipers and got estimates with $1,200 for the custom bigger calipers only for the front since they are custom that’s no damn cheap upgrade 😂
Yeah, $1200 is not cheap. I’m sure they would have worked out great though. 🍻
lol, an inch and a quarter.
?
@@azorianification Your user of tape measure. It was more like an inch and a 1/16th.
