1996 2WD Runner Brake Job

Howdy Guys,

I am in dire need of changing out my rotors and pads on my 96' 2WD drive 4Runner. I am not the first owner of this Runner and am unsure if it originally had 15" or 16" wheels.

Is there any way of inspecting the vehicle to determine the proper ordering size of rotors and pads?

What is a good online source price-wise for ordering brembo rotors?

Third, please recommend a good pad for some plain brembos?

Thanks Guys!!

Measure the rotor.

15" equipped vehicles had 11.6" diameter rotors
16" equipped vehicles had 12.5" diameter rotors

As for the pads and rotors, try checking with your local dealer. Often times they are priced the same as some of that online stuff, and some dealers will even match that pricing. Also, check toyotapartsales.com

Ok, just made the trip outside to the parking lot. The wheels are stamped t15 x 7JJ. Can I make a pretty good assumption that these are indeed 15" wheels?

Thanks in Advance!
