Stripped my caliper mountin bracket
So yes! I stripped my diver side caliper mounting bracket..
Question.. What other model of Lexus that use the same bracket?
Ima try calling the junk yard tomorrow..
Does the Sc , or 1st generation Gs share a same caliper bracket ?
I know Ls don't cause they have bigger caliper..
Thanks guys in advance.

I just picked up a caliper and caliper bracket from lexus for $150.00, it was a remanufactured unit. It came with new clips and springs, you should start there.
(I'm in Canada, don't know if it will be there same there)

*If you rethread to a bigger size you need to make sure your bolt is the right size to accomodate the larger hole/fit it*

ck snap on, mac tools, matco tools, craftsman tools, if they have that size to rethread. it cleans the threads so the bolt will go in.. not to sure if they have that size.. good luck.

Doesn't clean the thread. It removes the aluminum/metal that has been 'flattened' and creates the specified groove for your bolt. So in essence you're either creating new grooves for your bolt, and shaving off some metal/aluminum or creating a new hole with new grooves and removing alot of metal.
