				What do you guys/gals think? Definitely cheaper this way than from GM or the local distributors. But my concern is "seconds". http://www.ahwooga.com/detail.asp?id=18393...997-2004-NEW-GM |

Definitely cheaper this way than from GM or the local distributors. But my concern is "seconds". http://www.ahwooga.com/detail.asp?id=18393...997-2004-NEW-GM Poor value at $400 for bare calipers. The rears are useless, new GM front calipers were around $100 each from Team, not that long ago. Plus you need the abutments/pins/seals/clips, etc. Check prices on 'friction ready' calipers from Team or other discount GM parts houses.

Seem to have a decent piston diameter, they r aluminum and light. Do they spread? Here's all I can share about the rears: http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/index.php?sho...ic=4105&hl= |
