I ended up using a master of of a 1986 chev 3/4 ton 4x4 mounted on the 98 tacoma dual dia. booster, dana 60 disc front, 14 bolt rear with 3/4 ton rotors and GM 1/2 ton calipers with 47" swampers..............Works perfect!
Sure it is. On a performance street car. For the trail, I'll take the simplicity, availability, and ridiculous cheapness of GM brake components and standard brake line hardware.It's not the brand name as much as the design. A solid mounted 2+ piston caliper is a far superior design to a floating caliper.

I've seen the popular GM calipers jam up in a similar way on a few rigs. I'm just trying to avoid paying out the heiney for a set of Baer or Wilwood calipers when I know what I have currently can stop me just fine. :redneck:

I have dealt with willwood stuff/inbread toy stuff/ford stuff and jeep stuff. Almost everything I do now uses 1/2 ton gm stuff and could not be happier--granted I still use ford masters alot....
How's that jamming right rear caliper treatin' ya? :fawkdancesmiley:
Gosh, no wonder, a Toy caliper has two to four times as many pistons as a GM caliper. Simple = good.I have had more toy caliper failures than gm stuff over the years...

I dunno---I fixed that :awesomework:

:silly15: damn. :redneck: The only toy calipers I've ever had an issue with were those celica ones with the parking brake. my rear calipers I'm runnign right now are my old IFS calipers, factory original and still going strong after 21 years.
Works good huh?
