Turoa wrecked a 60 recently, he might recognise them or have spare parts handy

looks to be the same as my 60's front calipers.. i had pulled em apart and refitted em with new pistons, seals etc.. my calipers had one large pair of pistons and one smaller pair..

they were off an 1986 60 series cruiser... :)

Caliper is from a hilux or surf, s12w is the caliper id. How much do caliper rebuild kits go for ?

Caliper rebuild kit $75 :shock: at repco he will do it for $60, contains 4 seals and 2 metal rings.

Just curious... I have a swb cruiser with front calipers that are seized up beyond repair.... I have been told I can get calipers off the surf (ln130 model I think) do they just bolt on? does anybody know? I have been trying wreckers etc for some cruiser replacements but they are next to impossible to find.... found a few cruisers for parts in the process tho!!! yah!!! got one for nothing too.... well hopefully! will find out this weekend! I am in the deep dark south!

Thanks!
