There are better ways to go.
Those calipers are stock Toyota truck 4x4 calipers, available at any parts
store. You can do a google search on this conversion. It's normally a drop
in fit onto the GT6/TR6 uprights.
As for rotors, there are far better rotors out there that fit onto the GT6
hub. Canley Classics has some for example.
