4th Generation rear disc brakes

I forget who told me this but somebody told me it was possible to have rear disc brakes on a 99 camry I4 with 14" wheels, I know they can't be from a wagon or es300 cause those have 15" wheels but I forget where I'm supposed to get it from

As I said when you IMed me, if they were from anywhere it would be the V6 sedan. But i'm not even sure those will clear 14"s.

I installed V6 rear discs on my gen3.5(1996), and the stock 14" steelies clear just fine.

head to a salvage yard, grab a 14" steelie, and try mounting it onto the rear hub of a gen4 V6(if you can find one). If it fits, you'll have your confirmation that it works.

There's been COUNTLESS threads on how to do this, AND there's a DIY in the sticky thread on the main page.

Whoaaaa there. The 4 cylinder wagons had the rear disc brakes from the V6 sedan and coupe models (but only if they had ABS, IIRC). Those WILL clear 14" wheels. The V6 Wagon/ES300 and Avalon rear discs NEED 15" wheels.

If I Remember Correctly. And LEV stands for low emissions vehicle. It has nothing to do with the brakes.
