which caliper for 08 urbanrunner v6 xreas

[mott768]

Hi all I have the dreaded sticking driver side brake caliper, i was wondering what brand is everyone going with? I have a 2008 Urban Runner v6 4X4 with xreas I read somewhere some like the napa calipers but I am not sure which one to get, they have a few on their sight. I dont want to get a cheapo from advanced and then have to replace it again next year. Thanks for any help

If you look at the caliper you will see the part # embossed into the caliper. It will be something like: 13WL or 13WG.

Thanks I looked on napa's web and they say for 17in tires I have 18in does that make a difference? I couldnt see where its stamped on the caliper I'll have to look again later its been raining all day.

You either have a 13WH, 13WL, or 13 WG. The 13WH is for sport editions with 338mm rotors. The 338 rotors and 13WH calipers have trouble clearing 16inch stock rims.

Jack up your 4 runner or climb under it and look at the casting for 13WH or 13WG/WL

I have a 2008 UR as well and I noticed I have WH on mine. Urban Runners are basically sport editions when it comes to parts lookup. Just curious - was the pull to side really noticeable on yours? I can't tell if mine is bad or not. It had new brakes before I purchased, but probably original calipers.

I actually thought my front end was out of alignment from the pulling its been getting worse over the last 2 weeks, a couple of times it pulled real hard and thats what prompted me to get it looked at, I had a local shop take a look and they said its a known issue and he could tell its heating up and the wear is uneven, also said the inner pad is dragging on the rotor so before I cause any damage to the rotor its got to get fixed the more i drive the worse it will get.
