I have a line on '73 struts and M calipers and want to get some input on what the going rate in the SF bay area should be for these. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/huh.gif)

I paid 450 for a whole 5 lug kit that included M calipers and struts. They needed rebuilding.

Paid $80 at the 2005 Parts Heaven Sway meet for 73 911 struts.

M calipers should not be that expensive.

Call EASY in Emeryville or Spencer at Parts Heaven in Hayward.

Thanks Ken,
I was thinking in the $200 - 300 range for the struts calipers and associated hardware.
This is good info. I will try easy and PH tomorrow to see what they say.
What calipers are you running front and rear?

I think thats in the $ range if you look around for parts.

Running stock rear calipers and M calipers upfront. Pagid Orange Pads up front and a less aggressive pads in the rear.

No proprortioning valve.

No problem going flatout at TH turn 13 to 14 and getting slowed down to do 14, or Infinion 6 to 7.

I saw a pair of decent struts with calipers for sale at the Parts Heaven meet with a $350 tag on them, and they hadn't sold by late afternoon, so that's an indication. $250-300 seems about right.
