Ive been searching and I could'nt come across the part number for the shorter LS caliper bolts required for the install. Anyone know what it is? Im looking to do the install soon but I dont want to use spacers nor do I want to cut the stock bolts.

thanks!

 

actually guys, I found it...

its 9008010298. Toyots dealerships also carry the part but cost ~3x as much!

 

You can also call Luis from Carson Toyota, Nice fella

 

you can also just cut your stock one. fastest way to do it.

 

Put in washers? thats what I did...

 

Does any1 know the part number for the ls400 brake swap bolt part number from carson toyota......i callled but they was not too sure

 

searched for ls400 caliper bolts and found here. thanks! doing this conversion on my SC na-t.

 

Does anyone know how much you need to cut off or how thick the spacer has to be to work witht he stick sc caliper bolts?

 

Yes, I measured both bolts when I swapped my calipers 2 weeks ago. The LS bolt is 1.25" long and the SC bolt is 1.365", so you would have to grind off (don't try to cut as it is too little) about .115", slightly under 1/8". If you use washers you might need 1 if it is a really thick heavy duty one, or 2 normal washers. Apparently only one bolt needs to be shortened, the top if I remember, as the other has enough clearance to use the SC bolt.

Dial or digital calipers are around $10 at Harbor Freight or similar places. They are very handy and a good investment as saying .115" is a lot more helpful than saying "a smidgeon".

Thanks for the information. My calipers should be in soon and i cant wait to put them on.

 

I grabbed 2 new bolts (1 for each side) and all new spring pins etc.. from the dealer before I did my swap. I mean why not get the right bolts unless you are in a rush, which I wasn't at the time.
