The best reman front brake calipers?

Hi everyone,
The pass front caliper is sticking and killing my brake pad fast, so I need new front calipers. I went on the rockauto.com site and they have a few different brands of calipers available, with a big price difference. They also mention "loaded" and "semi-loaded", what is the difference? I know loaded as with pads, but semi-loaded? Is there a brand that I should look at that is better than the rest? I don't want to break the bank on this.


Thanks,
Zack

Don't know what semi-loaded is, but I've been pretty happy with reman calipers from Napa. Reasonably priced and good quality.

semi-loaded is everything but pads. i've used a lot of brands and never had a problem with any of them. i'd go for the cheapest oem rebuild.
