Arrow Tundra Brake Upgrade JUST ONE QUICK QUESTION
I'd like to do the Tundra brakes since I need new ones any way. But I need to know if they will work with my 15" Mickey Thomson Classic II's. I had to grind about a 1/4" of material from the front of the factory calipers to get em to work.

Q. Measuring from hub center to outermost part of caliper, is there any difference 4Runner/Tundra and if so how much?

I love these wheels but I also want more breaking power. Thanks

Did you grind down the caliper to far? I know for a fact i'm gonna have to grind it down a bit.
Just like I did to the stock ones

Going to Autozone in the morning with my caliper to do some measuring. From the looks of it I might be OK. Check out how the outer half of the 13WL (top of pic, opposite of bleeder) is already cast shorter than the inside, almost the same as my grinding job. Whereas the 4Runner caliper is flush across the outer surface. I guess I'll see when the measurements come out.

13WL Tundra


13WM 4Runner

Many have tried, and pretty sure most have failed without large amount of modification. 15's are just too small.

You could try the 13WE's which may fit better.
