I have questions about what the right/best combination rotors and caliper upgrades to use on my 1982 4 x 4. I just installed the 1" m/c on it but I need to know what calipers and rotors to use. I ordered rotors for a 1989 land cruiser but now I have my doubts. I should have asked FIRST before I ordered them (doh!).Which rotors do i use? I've heard about using the s12 w calipers on it too. I have the s12+8's on there now and they are REAL close to my rims. I'm wondering if the dimensions for the s12w's are the same as the s12+8's. wheel spacers are not an option for me.

ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!! THANK YOU EVERYONE!

I upgraded the brakes on my '81 4wd. Check out page 3 of my build thread, I listed all the parts and part numbers I used for my upgrade:

Call John in tech at L. C Engineering and he can either supply you with the right parts or point you in the right direction. L C Engineering supplied all of the required brake parts to me, everything bolted on without any problems and no wheel spacers or larger wheels were required. I run my original wheels, Enkei Series 30 15"x9" with 4 1/2" back spacing, and there was / is no clearance problems. I do not like or trust wheel spacers and too many people told me I had to use them in order to run the larger V6 calibers. PS: Digz-Thank you for the comments about my truck

 

thank you everyone for your help.

 

I'm not sure if this is compatible with the SFA trucks, but on my 86' 4Runner I swapped in rotors, pads and calipers from a 1995 Toyota T-100 1 Ton.
