Hi Mark
M16 have the same Bolt Pattern (Distance) 3.25" 82.55mm

You could also use some Toyota 4 Pot Caliper some are also 82.55mm .. if they work with the TR8 Disc , I don't know..

Thank you. According to www.rockauto.com, I think the parts are:

Raybestos RC3466 (left) and RC3465 (right) - used on the 1979-85 Pickup and 84-85 4Runner for the fully loaded calipers including pad. $52 each plus $10 core charge.

A friend is working this project, he bought a set of calipers from a Toyota T1004x4 (93) and the bolt spacing is 3,25 inches$

I have M16 calipers on mine but I turned up alloy adaptors to allow me to use Ford Cortina discs. The calipers bolt straight on, you will need a shim (aka washer) between the caliper and steering arm.

I believe with a caliper spacer kit I could also fit capri vented discs on the same adaptors, but have never felt the need.
