    Hi everyone. I have been hard at work doing my tundra upgrade. But I fucked up on this one. I was putting the new rotors i have and something isn't quite right. the rotor is too close to the dust plate and it not centered between the caliper. It looks like it's an 1/8 inch off. Would a spacer be used in this case? Is it even possible or feasible to use a spacer against the hub? I bought rotors that fit an 06 tundra. I have an 07 tacoma. Should I have bought different rotors? Dba47420 is the rotor. 13wl calipers

    Are you using Tundra Calipers or Rotors?

    I’ve only seen people do 4Runner Calipers and Rotors.

    Wasn’t aware of any Tundra Upgrade?

    The Tundra upgrade is popular with 1st Gen Tacomas but I haven't heard of the Tundra upgrade for 2nd gens either

    There is a Tundra caliper upgrade for 2nd Gen 5-lug Tacomas. I know because I'm going to upgrade my X-Runner with that modification. It requires new caliper brackets, Tundra calipers, and Lexus IS-F rotors. Have been assured it will fit behind the X-Runner's 18" wheels without spacers.

    I would be happy with a good rear disc setup myself.
    Not sure why Toyota hasn’t done this yet?
    Maybe, just maybe we can get this on the 4th Gen?
