I think one my driver rear caliper is seized (the fact the wheel is a few shades darker than the rest is a good indication). Anyone have an idea on how much a kit would cost? I might just do both calipers, but I'm not sure yet.

Thanks!

the kits always come in axle sets, so you'd be buying the stuff to do both in one box anyway.
only place i know to get a good kit is from the dealer.

 

the aftermarket does make them, but I haven't checked their quality.
though they do have to meet certain requirements

 

Interesting....thanks guys!

I just bought rebuilt calipers from autozone. $70 each. Right rear caliper was seizing, so I replaced that. Then I found out the other side brake is not working at all because the sliding pin was rusted. Left rear caliper was tight too. I guess 10 years, 160K salty miles they are about to go.

 

Yeah, I'm unsure what the milage is on these calipers, but 70 bucks for a rebuilt one might be a nice option.

I'm sure those calipers are toast. The parts they came off of ONLY had about a 3" layer of rust on them!

 

$65

 

With free shipping?

 

I wish i could but my cost on the caliper is $60
at least for the moment I've got another supplier lined up so some pricing may change for the better.
