Wanted: junk 1977 3/4 ton chebby front calipers

Post by tsmall07 »

I need some calipers to turn in for the core charge when I get my new ones. Anyone have some that they'll give me/sell for cheap? I'd like to get them soon.

Thanks,
Tyler

Does the axle you're working on not have any calipers on it?

I've never once had them compare the new with the cores. Theoretically you never have them in the store at the same time anyway.

I'm using them for a rear disk conversion on my 14FF.

Thats a good point! I'll just take my calipers from my junk f150 after I "install the new ones". :thumby:

they WILL look .... but they probably wont know the difference ... 'probably' being the opperative word ...

i mean .... shear size is a good indication ... i would do dual pot calipers for dual pot calipers .... good luck.

no, they will be single piston calipers.
