I have a quick question for the group. Are there any qualms or reservations against using "unloaded" brake calipers like these and transferring the bits and pieces of your OEM calipers to these calipers? This all assumes you have good pads, of course.
http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/sku/Pors...8L/A119434.html So are these unloaded brake calipers a bad idea? They seem like a much less tedious alternative to a rebuild kit without too much more money. |

Brakes only stick cause the calipers and bores are all glazed up or the flexible lines are shit,I presume you are talking about a car you are driving not some not driven for 20yrs type and then you have issues.
Brakes are a serious item ,think you could find working units secondhand and fix those for less,up to you your car afterall. |
