Ive got a line on some calipers, and wondering if anyone can ID them.
Eric? Any idea on what they are worth? They are missing your standard hardware, but were rebuilt and coated. Attached image(s)

Price is OK but, again, pistons size will tell the story. Rears will have smaller 30, 34 and possibly 36mm pistons.
The one on the left (in the last picture) is set-up properly. These calipers are generally cheaper because kits to rebuild them are as follows: Wiper seal = $32.50 Bore seal = $18.50 Total = $51.00 Now... times that by 4 because that's just one bore. Now, times that by 4 because that's just one caliper. So $204.00 per caliper to rebuild only... not restore (which is why a lot of these just get powdercoated). $816.00 in just kits to do one car... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Hence why the market seems to be flooded with these at low prices. |
