It will say if its a 2" or 2 1/8" on the caliper casting itself, that should narrow it down some for you.
I do not have my brake parts line ready yet, but am working on it...s l o w l y.
I think they changed them in 1980.
It should also cross reference with the Corolla of the same vintage...maybe that will help get you closer?
Otherwise order from 600/US Legends

Stick with the 70 - 80 vintage. The Celica ST or GT did not come into play until 85.

A couple of Raybestos Numbers;

76-79 Celica    2 1/8"          Left; RWC45519 - Right; RWC45518
74-75 Celica    2"                  Left; RWC45517 - Right; RWC45516



You might have to go to an independent or NAPA store to locate them as most chain parts stores; Autozone, Kragen's etc will probably not have them which is what I have found in my experience.

Good Luck,

I was able to get them through Autozone.  Took a couple of attempts but they finally got the correct ones.  I tried Napa, but they wanted me to pay the shipping to get them from the warehouse to the store.   >:(

I will see if I can find the numbers tonight.  What I had to do was have them look up the calipers by for the 76-79 Celica.  Make sure to have them show you the picture of the caliper before they order it in and if you have the caliper off of the car, take it in to compare.  Advance Auto parts was able to get the rotors but could not find a caliper that would match.

Here is link to a bunch of part numbers (Give it a second to load);

http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/raframecatalog.php?carcode=1273755&parttype=1704&a=FRc1273755k484550-1958566

Hope this helps.

For what it is worth I do not repalce but rebuild all of my calipers...It is cheaper, unless you have to buy piston(s) but then they are good forever after that and I have quality control...

rsrr,

why not just get them from your local 600 dealer? If you don't have a local dealer, I have these in stock, and would be happy to ship a set to you. I know pricewise they are about the same as you will find from NAPA, Autozone, etc...

I don't know the part number off hand, but would be happy to get it if you still need it.

If you want to order these, my number is 585-721-1795. I will ship them right out.

A brake caliper through 600 racing costs $54.95 according to their site.

Ron, did you ever get the caliper part numbers you were looking for (or atleast which make and model Toyota is correct)?
I am now looking for the same thing, specifically the Autozone part numbers.

Thanks,
