The outer steering knuckles are shared with the early live axle 4x4 pickups and FJ60s so you can swap parts. However, if you haven't noticed, everything thatYes I know that in '76 they did disc brakes for the first year on the front, but anyways, on my Toyota I don't really want to be doing drum brakes. They are a pain and just don't make sense to have. I want to get a whole disc brake conversion for the Toyota but the kits for all 4 rotors and everything is over 1k usd. That is a lot of money for just brakes. I am wondering if there are any somewhat affordable full disc brake kits off of other Toyotas or other cars that would work without having to make any major modifications. I would do all 4 brakes because the front brakes are shot. Thanks!
I can confirm as a 12 year (still current) owner of a T100 that they have drums on the rear axle...T100's may have had 4 wheel disc brakes but I am not aware of any conversions for the 40 Series.
Byron, I am curios if you have any part #'s for your Wilwoods. I recently got a set of '78 axles that I am in the process of refurbishing for my '66. The fronts have factory discs but the rears are what I'd like to source. Did you get them from Summit, and if so, what rotors did you use?I don't believe that any Landcruiser, at least in the 40 Series, that had 4 wheel disc brakes. T100's may have had 4 wheel disc brakes but I am not aware of any conversions for the 40 Series. You can get GM conversion kits for front and rear but being more of a performance guy I went with conversions that used Wilwood 4 piston calipers that could be balanced, different piston sizes for front and rear. I don't remember the cost but sometimes you have to pay to get what you want.
