Where's the best place to get rear calipers?

After getting crap gas mileage for a while (16.5 on my last tank while driving conservatively) I decided to jack up the rear end of the car. My rear tires stick and do not spin freely at all. Hah.

So, where is the best place to get replacement calipers? I've heard Autozone makes rebuilt ones for approx. $60 a pop. Im going to call around tomorrow and price some out also. Which are the best quality though? Thanks in advance.

Go to autozone and get the reman ones. They have lifetime warranty. It is also easy to return if you find anything wrong.

Thanks for the find pmohr...the free search really sucks. I have priced out www.rockauto.com and Autozone and after shipping and all, they are about the same price. I know Autozone has a lifetime guarantee on the rebuilt calipers too, so I think I might go that route. I just can't believe the price differences between each Autozone (lowest is $70 each and the highest was $110 each).
