Have a banner day! overlanding toyota truckbuild tundra toyota tundra brake caliper replacement - บันเทิง
You can use a 16 inch rim, but it has to be from certain years. I have 16 inch rims from a 2015 Tacoma on my 02 sequoia and I have the 13WL calipers which are the same size as the 14WA calipers. There isn’t much space between the rim and the caliper but they do not scrape.
I just picked up a 2006 tundra and your videos are super helpful. Thank you
Jerome congrats on the new Rig! Come join the First Gen Tundras Facebook group. There's a bunch of good folks and info over there as well. Thanks for watching
Seriously considering this on my 02 Sequoia. It's on 33s and factory brakes, loaded up with a sleeping platform and soon it'll have a steel bumper. The factory brakes are absolutely not up to spec anymore- at speed, I can plant my foot in the brakes and it's nowhere near enough stopping power to get even close to locking wheels or engaging ABS. I can't imagine trying to tow something.
You should do it. I just bought a first gen Sequoia to build and I’m going to do the same upgrade.
Well I’m convinced, gonna do it for my 06 DC tundra thx!
Hell yeah, thanks for watching!
Watch video number 2 next week for the proper banjo bolts you'll need for the extended brake lines. It was a challenge finding the right ones
Nice video so far. I just did this upgrade on my 2005 Doublecab 2 weeks ago.
Thanks Tom! I am waiting the the proper banjo bolt to show in the mail to finish it up
@@EvergreenOverland u have an RCD 6" lift so I already had extended brake lines with the banjo bolts. I took the opportunity to install new Crown brake lines and used the existing banjo bolts. Good luck. Can't wait for part 2
You did a great job you mostly answer most of my questions
Great job!! Very good upgrade over you stock system!!
Thanks John, I'm really looking forward to seeing how it improved the brakes very soon
Gearwrench digital torque wrench is awesome
I love me some gearwrench tools. Thanks for the recommendations and for watching.
Job well done sir. I too am trying to go pro and at misplacing tools 😂
Thanks man. I wonder what kind of sponsorship goes along with it. 🤣
The front braided lines with banjo bolts is that the correct banjo bolts? I know in the video you said you accidently put the wrong ones in initially.
Thank you for the links and awesome video!
The link to the banjo bolts I used from chase bay is this www.chasebays.com/search?type=product,article,page&q=*M10x1.0%20Short%20Banjo%20Bolt,%20Zinc%20Plated%20×%202*
Looking g forward to the finished video. I want to see what you did about the banjo boltz.
What company to get the correct banjo bolts
Here you go John. www.chasebays.com/products/m10x1-0-short-banjo-bolt-zinc-plated
Thanks for watching
Good content 👍 I’ll like to know what kinda banjo bolt/brake line to use, does it come in the kit?
Is that a bought bumper? Or built?
Either way it’s bad ass
Have you looked into a rear disc conversion upgrade?
I have heard they aren’t worth the trouble
Hey do you have any update on your break upgrade? Is been over a year whats the final word!!??
thx in advace
Hey thanks for the info. Do you remember ordering the front or rear axle caliper set? I know you linked to the rear ones, but just wanted to confirm. Along with that, did you get the front or rear pads and rotors? Thanks again.
What year Lexus gx 460 cuz it might be important info
I believe, it’s 5th gen 4 runner, and the 2015 and up gx460. Got the info from Timmy the tool man, he does great Toyota work.
Did you also purchase the R1 Brake Hardware Kit?
I did. You end up with a few extra pieces, but you need the anti squeak tensioning springs from that kit
Do you know if the Lexus GX460 rear brakes will work with the rear SOS adapter plates?
What wheels spacers do you run? do you need them to fit the brake upgrade?
trying to do this cant find the brake lines that would be compatible!
Are the wheel-spacers needed to fit these brake calipers/rotors or just needed for the bigger tires? Thanks.
Good question Hendrik. Nope they are not needed for the calipers only the larger tires for where I was rubbing. Thanks for watching
How do the brakes feel? I am literally looking into doing this upgrade myself and stumbled across your video. I was going to buy OEM calipers instead. Do you think the R1s calipers would be nicer than the gx factory?
Brakes feel good, but I do think there is still some air in the lines somewhere as I get a little squishy peddle for the first push. Going in Wednesday to have them pressure bleed to know for sure if it is sir or the master cylinder struggling to keep up. I'll shoot a response to you after Wednesday.
The R1 calipers are GX460 calipers. Not sure who produces the OEM Lexus calipers, but I was very pleased with the R1 product I went with.
Glad you stumbled on to my video. Thanks for watching! I
@@EvergreenOverland Thanks for the response! I will be looking into buying this exact same kit here shortly. Especially since the R1 product seems so nice. No sense in buying OEM when these are guaranteed to fit together.
By the way your truck is amazing! I have an 06 white DC that will one day grow up and be like yours.
Link for front brake lines please... The original link you put doesn't lead to front brake lines at all
What's the max size wheel /tire
combo can you go before having to use spacer? Thx!
Will these brakes work on a 2001 tacoma with 17" rims?
I can confirm they bolt right on on my 2001 Tacoma on 17s
Good stuff. I'm having a hard time looking for a machinist to mill the calipers down. How much (approx.) Am I expecting for some work like this?
Hey Sou have you already purchased the calipers? If not I would recommend joining the facebook group First Gen Tundras and talk to Geoffrey Beers. If you order the calipers to him he has a machinist who he uses that will do it and then ship it back to you. If you need some help maybe we can come up with something else. Let me know where you are at in the process.
@@EvergreenOverland Drew, Thank you and I apologize for the delayed response. I reached just reached out to Geoffrey and waiting for his reponse.
No update I guess!!??
Hello. Can you send me the link or the part number of the caliper
How are these holding up
Still struggling to get the peddle feel I am after. I am going to have to post a follow up video at some point but I am trying a few more things first.
Thanks for watching Nick!
@@EvergreenOverland absolutely! One more question how are the rotors holding up? I'm in the process of get new pads and rotors foe my tundra
Здравствуйте,я владелец Секвойи 1 поколения.тормоза с gx460 подойдут на мою машину?
Yes
@evergreen overland what year lexus 460 did the upgrade come from??
I did mine from a 2015 gx460 but if I remember right its the same from 2010-2019
So the calipers ears only need to be shaved 5/32"? correct?
Sorry Guachale, I’m not a machinist so I’d hate to lead you to an incorrect measurement.
@@EvergreenOverland 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 You're a joke 🤣🤣🤣
@@EvergreenOverland well wtf did you have your machinist machine your calipers down to so that they would work properly on your Tundra??
I did 3.5mm when I did mine
@@heismyrefuge1027 3.5mm? Everything lined up okay?
Is this upgrade worth it. I have an 03 tundra V8 4x4 with WE13 calipers which are the biggest for the 03 to 06 tundra. But my brakes feel like I'm stopping a train. I have 20 rims with 35s. Iv already replaced the brake master cylinder and brake booster,steel braided brake lines and dot 4 brake fluid. My brakes still suck.i have to tow here soon and I'm nervous the rear has drums
I think sequoias have discs in the rear. Maybe look into that
@@bougiebum9138 they do but they have different mounting brackets for the shocks and I'd have to get a different mastercylinder to adjust the braking force from front to rear. And I'd have to fab up separate brake lines one for each rear caliper since there's only one like going to the rear.
Pound for pound drum brakes PSI are better than disc. They're also better for dirt and debris. Google it. People who put discs on their rear are doing it because they just don't know better or are only doing it for looks. Don't be that guy. It's much better to just upgrade the front if you really feel it's warranted. Don't forget to flush and rebleed first and check other issues as a lot of time that's the problem, not the hardware itself. Brake and clutch fluid are hydroscopic and imo should be fully changed out every 5 years regardless of miles.
@OldOwl if drums were better they would be using in the in drag strip and track cars.
@@dillonkoch72 better for racing, not necessarily better for trucks and utility vehicles.
Can't hear the audio.
Oh man I'm sorry about that. Audi is getting better I promise. Thanks for attempting to watch lol
Will these fit on a 01 tundra ?
Yes this mod is compatible with 01. Basically 2000-2006
Can you send me the parts number for the brake lines you use please
Can you please send me the part number for the breka line with banjo bolt please
The link to the brake lines dont lead to anything. What PARTS did you use for your TUNDRA (FRONT/REAR)?
The link to the REAR BRAIDED BREAK LINES a DUD BRO.... what's the PART# TO THAT THING. GOT THE SAME TRUCK U DO and that BRAIDED BREAK LINE would help IMMENSELY.
Crap. I’ll try to find it and change it tonight
Pretty sure this is it wheelersoffroad.com/wheeler-s-off-road-single-rear-brake-line-for-1995-2004-toyota-tacoma-and-1996-2002-toyota-4runner-from-stock-height-to-3-5-lift-tf-bline-04.html#93=74
Did you use the same brand brake lines for the front for an 04 Tacoma from wheeler?
@@EvergreenOverlandthat line fit the tundra?
