Trevor and list,
With what offsets is the Sumitomo caliper available with (i.e is there more than one
offset available)?
Will it 'bolt-in' like a hilux caliper onto a 200b strut.
If not what mods. are necessary.
Regards,
Nick

Nick,
I recon cheapest and easiest convesion would be to use twin piston
simitomo's from early 240K's. Consider the following caliper info.
Each Piston diameter (cm) Total piston area (cm2) (ie
pi x r^2 x number of
pistons)
Simitomos 4.8 36.19
Hilux 3 28.27
200B 5.4 22.9
So if you apply the same amount of hydraulic pressure to the caliper then
the twin piston simitomos work better.

Trev
