First of all i want to say hello to u guys. I have been out of the states yet again. I will be back in north carolina in january for a few months for training so maybe i can make one of ur monthly gatherings ir maybe get to ride with u guys.
So I have a stupid quesrion for u guys.
I have 79 mini disc break conversion on my 69 fj40.
I am planning to drive to Arkansas for the crusier crawl this weekend and trying to do some maintenance on the old girl since it has been sitting for a while.

Anyway, with the "79 mini disc conversion what break pads should I ask for at the parts store? Sorry if this is a stupid question that could be easily searched for but I kind of rather get the answer from one of u guys and I'm kind of in a time crunch since I just got back and have to do lot of little things to the 40 before I decide if I am going to drive it there or haul it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

The spec sheet the previous owner gave me says
79 Toyota mini disc conversion.
That is all I know. It will be the first time changing them so I guess it's going to take some trial and error.

Is there a big difference between 60 and mini truck brake pads. I might pick both up and then just compare them to the ones on the truck.
 
pull em out and bring them to the store with you...find a match...you're ok...
 
Are the rotors vented or non vented. If non vented then stock for old yota mini. If vented then good chance 60 series. Post up some pics.

This is what I'm thinking as well. Vented rotors with the 4Runner calipers.
