Not part of brake job. Also the listing for acorn is the axle bolt. Those are probably ok too the Toyota part right under that is the acorn nut that you will need to replace. Most people don't replace wheel cylinders if they are not leaking but in this case with any work being such an extensive job replace them for good measure. Remember there are 2 sides here so order enough for both sides, 2 each of seal , etc. Oh and all the rest is fine. Just like the shoes I posted way better Linda S For all these parts work on my 86th dolphin Seabreeze Quote
fingers Posted September 24, 2025 Posted September 24, 2025 An invaluable list. Thank you. I do have a related question. I have an 84 dolphin, previous owner had the rear axle recall performed so good to go there. I obtained the front hubs from an 87 so I only have to carry 1 spare. the calipers are hanging me up, tho. I ordered 2wd 1-ton calipers w/ brackets for an 88, but they seem to not reach the spindle. I didn't physically test this, I just looked at the size difference between the new and old one. the new one seems much shorter. Am I missing something? Like maybe the arc is different? It should be a 5mm difference, yes? Quote
fingers Posted September 24, 2025 Posted September 24, 2025 Differences between what? I see 2 calipers. Quote
extech Posted September 25, 2025 Posted September 25, 2025 one on the left is 1/2 ton. the other is 1 ton Quote
TampaCruisers Posted October 4, 2025 Posted October 4, 2025 Appreciate everybody that chimmed in and added their grain of sand for us newbies working on these great machines. Our shop, Tampa Cruisers, recently took the -gamble- of working on a 1992 Seabreeze for one of our customers. It's been a joy and a great learning experience!n We just finished brakes, bearings, seals, Bilstein shocks in all 4 corners; moving to sway bar bushings and leaf bushings as well. Working on the best choice in steering dampener (Checking if Old Man Emu or Dobinsons have an offering since We're dealer of their products). We replaced the AC Condenser, compressor, evaporator and fuel filter previously. Thanks for all the parts help and guidance. If anybody ever needs help with their Toyota RV in Florida, or beyond, We're proud to say We work in not only Land Cruisers, but Toyota Rv's as well. Manny @ @TampaCruisers Quote

RaderDog Posted November 5, 2025 Posted November 5, 2025 Anyone know how to tell the difference between a 1/2 ton and 1 ton Brake Master Cylinder? My 1986 Toyota SunRader has a Recall 1 ton Full Floater Rear End installed by Toyota. I am rebuilding the front end with a 1 ton. The Master Cylinder looks like the 1 ton photos. Is there anyway to tell visually? Thanks in advance. Quote
