Toyota Land Cruiser Rear Disc Kit
Installation Instructions
Parts List
(2) New Vented Rotors
(2) Caliper brackets
(10) 3/8 - 24 x 1 1/4 grade 8 bolts
(10) 3/8 grade 8 lock washers
(10) 38 – 24 grade 8 nuts
Installation Instructions
- Remove the axles and then the backing plates. (Pinch off the rubber
line between the frame and axle. This will keep all the fluid in the lines and
make it easier when you bleed the system.)
Install the caliper brackets to the inside surface of the housing. (You
can use any position you like)
Reinstall the axles. (Make sure the 2 screws are out of the axles & it is
flat around the hole.)
Install the rotors on the studs and hold in place by the wheel nuts, check
the rotors for any wobble. Under .010 would work o.k.
Install the 78 - 83 Monte Carlo front calipers or 79 - 85
Eldorado rear
calipers. Grind off any projections on the calipers that might hit the
bracket.
You can use the 1977 or newer Land Cruiser brake booster. The 75 Land
Cruiser has a one inch master cylinder which can also be used. The residual
valves are in the outlets where the brake lines screw into the master
cylinder. These need to be removed. You can use a large front reservoir in the
rear cylinder to compensate for the larger rear caliper pistons.
An adjustable proportioning valve will probably be needed in the line
going to the rear brakes because you now have more rear brakes than you had
before. You can convert from metric to U.S. brake lines by using 3/16 U.S.
steel brake line, cut off one end, slip on a metric brake end and re-flare.
If you have a spongy pedal and bench bleeding the master cylinder and a
thorough bleeding of the system does not cure the problem, read through the
troubleshooting sheet. You must remove the calipers from the brackets and
hold in the correct position to get the air out.
