The piston and caliper seals?

[@seve6979]

@@SokhomGarage So they do come in a kit, one pic i found they looked like a metal (seal between the caliper halfs). Pic was from some lexus part seller.

@@seve6979 The metal sleeve is not needed unless they come sleeved with them, then you’ll have to replace them with that kit.

Did you do extended wheel studs?

[@SokhomGarage]

I did not, I shaved it down instead

[@davidpritchard6685]

im doing the same swap. im finding the brake line rubs the lower arm. did you find this or is it ok when the car is siting on its wheels.

[@SokhomGarage]

Yes I did notice it, but if you turn it a certain way, where it does bind up and rub at the same time, it should be ok, at least that’s what I did, I turn the wheel left and right from lock to lock and tested it, but if all fails, you’ll have to go back to the old brake lines.

[@shaunsegree4587]

Question what is the size torx bit did you use to pull the 4 caliper bolts I got a use pair and missing one bolt trying to find a one

[@SokhomGarage]

I believe it’s a T30 or T45
