86 pickup brake upgrade?
 

I am to the point where I need new pads, and am thinking of doing a brake upgrade on it. Are there any stock toyotas that can contribute to a larger caliper/rotor? my calipers look like they are a decent size, and are 4 piston(stock) but just looking into my options at this point.

If you go to a 89-95 caliper they are bigger and will bolt right in. You have 2 little pistons and 2 large, the later ones are all large pistons.

89-95 V6 calipers/rotors are the way to go! The really really ideal ones are 92-95 4runner/truck v6 as they redesigned the anti-rattle spring into a stout one piece unit that was much less likely to come out of there.

Sorry to bring up an old thread.

I have a 88 4runner that was recently lifted and now has 33s. I want more braking. Could I use the 92-95 4Runner brakes? I have a 15 in rim if that matters

It doesn't. If you were doing the Tundra upgrade then it would.

never though that worked either. Ill look into that thanks!

I've also got bad brakes on my '88 4Runner
So I can take 92-95 4runner/truck calipers, and still use my rotors?
Or do I need rotors from the 92-95 4runner/truck?
Is there any modification needed for this?

You cannot do the tundra upgrade on 86-95 IFS rigs. The only modification that might be necesary to install the V6 brakes is minor trimming of the backing plate.
