Hi peeps, wondering if anyone has any sensible ideas about this.
I will be wanting to replace all my callipers sometime soon as they've now got 104K miles on them and they're not looking their best.

I've been looking at rear brake calipers and comparing stuff on Toyodiy.

So Facelift rear callipers have the following part numbers
Rear Right 47730-17160
Rear Left 47750-17160

Prefacelift
Rear Right 47730-17120
Rar Left 47750-17120

The torque carriers for all years are the same numbers though.
If you use the parts cross-reference tool then both sets of parts numbers show they were used 12/1999-08/2005.
So they have different part numbers but are the same?

Some places advertise refurbished callipers for all cars 1999-2006, the one or two places that show a difference actually charge way more for the facelift callipers .... I'm beginning to think it's just a rip off.   s:crazyeyes: :crazyeyes: s:crazyeyes:   Or is there really a physical difference between them?

Check the length to the shoulder though Nic, think they need to be 15mm.

You can also get speed bleeders with a 15mm thread length from that well known site, they are cheap but work well, i use them.
