Default Do we share brakes with the Highlander?

I need to do my brakes, including rebuilding a seized rear calliper, and wondering if I can buy parts at a much closer Toyota dealer than going to Lexus which is a lot further.


Thanks

I doubt they ship to Canada and if they do it wouldn't be worth it. Local Lexus dealer wants $80+tax for the caliper rebuilt kit ..thats some costly gaskets and seals.

I'm pretty sure the highlander shares the brakes, Toyota is asking $10 less ..still costly for few silly seals. You guys in the states have it so much cheaper

Especially silly when they are built not all that far from your location.

I think that you guys get much more benefit from government. Isn't everyone paying for that one way the other?
