    They freeze up once and awhile. If the caliper is indeed frozen you should get a new one

    Yup I just replaced both of mine a few months ago. The pins were fused to the calipers. Just get a new set from the local parts store, makes life much easier. You could rebuild them, but swapping for new is easy and quick

    If its a warped rotor you should feel it pulsing when you brake. And yes the calipers can freeze up, mine did recently. Didn't know it was until my brake line busted and went to replace the lines and bleed the brakes and zero fluid was going through. I have the tundra upgrade and it's worth it.

    Some of this Some of that
    Tundra brake time... Just do it! Our truck calipers rust frozen, so if it is in fact seized it would be very difficult to rebuild. And if they were original ones that's a very long life. I'd really just put in tundra brakes now, you'll be glad you did

    What size wire do you have going to the positive and negative post on that block? It looks way too small to me. Hopefully it's just a bad pic. I'd be using 6 or 8 gauge. I think I used 6.

    I thought the 1st Gen Tundras came with 16" rims w/ 17s being the upgrade.

    Nevertheless, I know a guy with Tundra brakes and 16" rims. He's going to let me test fit my wheels when I get closer to doing the mod myself.

    Edit: according to Tirerack.com, the original available rim sizes were 16" and 17".
