1980 FJ40 axle and brake identification needed

[sdefrank]

I have a 1980 FJ40 that is new to me and located in Indonesia. I am trying to identify the break calipers and verify if the axels are factory or not?

I thought this would be low hanging fruit.

The axle looks right, but the calipers I am familiar with on Toyota disc brakes have two hydraulic cylinders and this looks like one.

Toyota never install disc brakes on the rear axle. This is not stock. The end flange on the axle housing looks correct semi floating rear axle up to 8/80. But disc brake calipers are not. Lack of backing alone says it's not stock.

being in Indonesia, most likely a 1 off custom job

I am pretty sure they a Chinese caliper but the numbers stamped on them are not what you would normally see on their stuff, I think. I may need to pull and start over with a retrofit brake. Being in Indonesia only a couple time a year make this really difficult.

probably a good idea to just start over as the brackets are also suspect
