You can check www.rockauto.com. I'm sure they ship to Canada. Caliper-
wise US NAPA store are about USD$60. You can check for Raybestos reman
calipers in Canada. Many of Raybestos rotors come from there anyway.
Beck Arnely and Raybestos are good aftermarkets and those are what I
use.

The boot retainer ring goes on the OUTSIDE of the boot where it seats
in the caliper so it doesn't pop out. It comes off first and goes on
last. Best to see it on the old caliper. I'll try to google some more
for pics.

Here is the Free AutoZone online repair guide on the 96 Camry caliper
rebuild:

Now I look at this your 95 probably doesn't have the retainer ring
because it belongs to the same generation.

Thanks for that good info, John. A great buying site to navigate in for
sure - - and a possibility.
I will finish my sourcing process and may give rockauto a try after other
avenues are exhausted. The s/h cost from rockauto is closer to local dealer
price when express overnight shipping, duty and exchange is factored in ;-/
...yup it's that much! Dale

Thanks again, John. Yup, similar and helpful but not the same as mine is a
2-piston model, ABS. Dale

Replaced them on a '94 single piston caliper using the Factory Service
Manual instructions.
See:
http://oregonstate.edu/~tongt/camry/index.html
They are press fit but easy to install.
You take a standard socket and drive them in with a hammer.
The service manual also indicates grease application points for the
dust boots and slide pins, unless your dual piston design is
different.
The Toyota service manual is the final authority.
