WTB: Rear Disc Caliper

**Arabian_Knight** · 12-13-2005, 11:05 AM

I'm not sure if fifth gens had a rear drums or not, but I have a rear disc set. I need a caliper since the piston on mine died. Mike? Piney? any of you guys have one?

GTS got drum in disc. The ebrake use the drum. I don't have extra caliper. Can you just rebuild it? You can get rebuild kit from Toyota. Take the piston out clean off all the rust and its good to go. Check and make sure the slide pins move freely. They're cause for caliper sieze before the piston.

Use a caliper tool to push the piston in to see if it move. Take the slide pins out and grease them with caliper grease. The silde pin is the one the mount bolt go through.
