Different front brake calipers per trim?

[shimp999]

Hi,

Does anyone know if there are differences in the front brake calipers between trim levels(LE vs SE vs XLE) for Gen 5 Camrys?

I'm wondering why autoparts stores are selling different calipers for different trim levels. My caliper pistons seem to be sticking a bit so I wanted to replace them with reman/rebuild calipers. I found some Bendix reman calipers for the "SE/XLE" that are much cheaper than the ones for LE.

there are no differences in the front calipers between the trim levels (part numbers are the same), at least on the 4 cylinder models... however, there is a difference between the SE and LE/XLE for the 6 cylinder models. across all models made in Japan or North America is different.

Baloney, according to my parts list.......

well let me clarify... since there's so many different models with different transmissions and chassis codes:

for all 4 cyls within their respective categories (4-speed trans & manual/JPP, 4-speed trans/NAP, 5-speed trans/JPP, and 5-speed trans/NAP... there's too many to list...) they are the same part numbers across the trim levels.

but since you've got the all inclusive parts list, go ahead and answer the OP's question!

are six cylinder brakes bigger then 4 cylinder brakes? on gen 5 receptively

Gen5

I show that all I4's models and the V6 LE use the same caliper.

The V6 XLE and SE use a different caliper.

No idea what the difference is other than possible mounting bolt locations.

Thanks for the info. I guess I won't risk getting a caliper that doesn't fit and stick with the ones for "LE" or I4.
