Default 1999 LS400 break calipers

As I was working on front suspension, I noticed that the break pads are flush with the rotor surface (breaks not applied) and rotors don`t turn freely(some friction). Does that mean the caliper pitons don`t retract and I need to rebuild the calipers? Anyone has part# for the kit? I read LexLS tutorial, but I know the calipers are different on 1998-2000.

From what I remember, the rebuild kit comes with....
  • 8 piston seals (4 for each side)
  • 8 rubber boots
  • small packet of lithium grease
  • 2 crush washers for the brake lines

It does NOT come with anti-squeal shims, you need to re-use the existing ones. Just clean them up and apply lots of anti-squeal grease. Some new brake pad sets do come with new shims. You DON'T need the brake sensor wire.

You will need front RCAs....I don't recommend shaving any bolt/nut. You also need new 95-00 LS400 size rotors, and be prepared to cut or bend your rotor shield to allow space to mount the LS400 calipers.

And don't forget hubcentric spacers....I used 15mm to clear my stock 16" wheels.

Good luck.

Pete
