Items needed.

2 Calipers from a Sequoia or Tundra. Either 199 or 231 mm on the size. You will have to trim some of the dust cover with the 231mm.
2 Rotors from vehicles above.
Set of Brake pads from vehicle above.
6 pack of beer maybe 12 if you have a buddy helping. It should not take you any longer than this to swap them out.

Now do a simple brake job but replace your calipers and rotors while doing it.
Costs about 300$ or so depending on what you buy.

I just ordered a set of OEM calipers off a 2001 Sequoia for 100$ shipped off ebay. 300$ each for new OEM ones.

Going to get the rest and change my brakes.

Cheers!!!
