BNT will have some but $$$ unless you have a trade account.
Best buy I found was NZ Brake Co. (auckland)
Not sure if they have other outlets but they do courier.
They were 1/2 the price from BNT.

They also have the rear handbrake shoes......

Thanks for that Calvin, If no luck tomorrow, I'll give them a call.

I think they are a DBA 787. I have a DBA pdf catalogue here which has all the dimensions. I think supercheap sell DBA products (lots of places do) they should have the same catalogue (well you would think they would!). I'd just take your old rotor in and compare with the dimensions in their catalogue.

I bought some rear LJ71 rotors a year or so ago (same as your LJ78), from a place in mt wellington, and they didn't have anything listed for LJ71/78's either.

PM me your email address if you want me to send you the catalogue, it's about 1.2mb ...although I downloaded it, so it's available somewhere?

DBA 787 is the correct part number, thanks guys.
BNT and Repco were both about $135 retail and both about $95 trade.
So I called NZ Brake Co. to compare prices and they were $40 each off the shelf, so the courier is bringing me a pair tomorrow.
Thanks Calvin for the contact, it saved me many pennies.
And thanks Jeremy for the catalogue.
Both much appreciated

Does anyone have part numbers for these, or a supplier?
Dimensions on the bearings would be helpful,
I can't pull mine to take them into SKS or similar as I need the vehicle running to go get the parts.
Repco etc haven't got a listing for TRes and Toyota haven't got any in the country.
