Be aware that you will also need the bottom balljoint arm that bolts onto the bottom of the strut , it also takes the rack arm .
The later models are straight while the earlier ones have a step in them , this will foul the bottom end of the caliper .
It is a straight swop , just make sure you do a wheel alignment afterward .

i think thats an optional step.
this is a diy for Supra brakes but the LS brakes are pretty much the same dimensions except a tad wider.

Pure the Supra calipers are actually smaller !!
I have a set of remanufactured 95 calipers myself but haven't fitted them yet , but my brother in NZ has just done this swop , when he bought the car a 93 LS400 the 95 Lexus 4 spots were in the boot [ how lucky is that !! ] anyhow when he went to fit them the calipers fouled on the rack end ball joint , it turns out the Supra calipers have a smaller piston diameter compared to the Lexus units , not sure of the exact dimentions , something like 38 mm to 40 or 42 mm on the Lexus calipers .
No way would they fit , he had to go and get some 99 model lower ball joint arms , his had a step in them , the 99 model ones were straight , will post up the pic's when I get them smaller .
