Tundra brake upgrade question..
My local supplier has casting number 13wg calipers for a steal of a deal. $65 for the pair. No core charge. He wants to get rid of them. I was reading the forum and have seen very little mentioned about the 13wg calipers. I'm seeing a lot on the 13wl. I know they will bolt up just fine and understand the installation but what rotors and pads do I buy? I told the dealer that its for a 05 tundra and they keep asking for a vin (obviously I don't have) and they show nothing for a tundra with 13wg casting. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

Are you sure it's 13WG? I believe the 199mm Tundra's are 13WE and the 231mm Tundra's are 13WL. I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure I have it right.

WG calipers are found on the 4th gen 4runners. Which tire size they fit (16 or 17) I do not know. If you can make them work on our 3rds, then I would imagine you would be the first person to use them. Be the guinea pig and see if they will work. Do a DYI.

Here is a link to get you going:
