lexus400 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Does anyone have a brake carrier bracket ? I know a couple of you guys found a few parts cars. I need the pass side/front. This is the bracket that you bolt the caliper up to. Mine has a crack so I need to get a another one. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sapper_daddy Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 as i work away from home and only get there on weekends get in touch with ocberg on here by PM or some means and tell him that you are looking for some salvage parts as i gave him a few resources and numbers to go to he can most likely hook you up there, sorry if i am volunteering him for this but hopefully he won't mind as he is a very nice polite fellow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nc211 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 I'm changing out my pads this weekend, and all the skims and fitment kits. I'm not sure what the carrier part is, or if the 95 has one that would work on your model? If so, and it's one of my older ones, then you're more than welcome to have it....but....what is it??? post up a picture? or one of those parts pdf files with the number?

lexus400 Posted March 22, 2006 Author Share Posted March 22, 2006 sapper_daddy - thanks, I'll send a PM nc211 - the carrier bracket is what the caliper bolts to (it's the part you unbolt to get the rotor off). You'll need that !! This is kind of unusual, the carrier bracket is not usually a part you replace in the life of the car. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gumart1 Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Also known as the torque plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alsalih Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 There is some confusion here that needs to be cleared up. The 95+ models do not have a seperate caliper mount bracket, the caliper itself is bolted to the hub. It's a great design improvement as there are no pins to lubricate or threads to strip.

lexus400 Posted March 23, 2006 Author Share Posted March 23, 2006 Ah, I didn't know that.... thanks for the clarification !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCRFAN3 Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 If you go to your local parts dealer, and tell them that you want a "Loaded Brake Caliper". It will contain the bracket that you need, but will not contain the new bolts that you need. Any good parts store will have these. If you need a number for a good parts store, 815-455-1300. They have the part that you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
