Selling my C5 brake set-up because I upgraded to Wilwood. Please note that these calipers need rebuilt, at a minimum, because the dust boots and seals got very hot. They might not be any good at all, I really do not know. A rebuild kit is around $20 ea so it might be worth a shot. Or just plan on throwing the calipers out and buying new. The rest of the components here are in good condition.

^Note on box applies. These Calipers got very hot because of a dragging issue cause by my poor adjustment of the pedal balance bar. These calipers may be junk.

^toasted boots

What is included:
Modified spindles with brackets
Abutment brackets with hardware (pins, boots, bolts, stainless pad sliders)
Calipers that are potentially junk
Goodridge braided lines which you might not want to reuse but I'll give you the option

What you will still need:
hubs / cut down brake rotors
rotors
calipers or caliper rebuild
lines?
pads

It could work out well and you get a cheap kit. Or at the worst you pay the equivalent to retail price for some components.


Price $250

If anyone buys this and plans to chunk the calipers, I want them.

BTW Austin these would go quick on Thirdgen.org.
