These are a pair of Rebuilt 65-72 Kelsey Hayes disc brake calipers that are used on the A body cars, during those years, as optional equipment.
I just completed the rebuilding of them, and now i am putting them up for sale.
These officially started life as 67 calipers, and you are getting them with all the hard lines on the calipers, and naturally with new rebuilding seal kits, that were required in rebuilding them, and new pistons that were necessary for replacement, and all four of the pad hold down clips.
Also with both hard lines on the calipers, that you don't get if you bought rebuilt calipers that come out of China.
These calipers are pretty much out of stock, at the parts store level, these days, in this modern day and age.
You purchase your own brake pads, of the manufacture of your choosing, as some folks are pretty anal in what brand, pad composition that they like to use, so i left that decision up to you.
Replacement parts costs have gotten very expensive since the last pair of these KH calipers that i rebuilt, last year, for resale purposes.
The hard brake lines are now costing sixty dollars from the selling company, and the kits, pistons, pad clips, have also substantially gone up in price.
These calipers are quite expensive to rebuild, in this modern day and age, sad to say.
I have done all the hard dirty work for you in rebuilding them.
I am now a retired, former full time, auto mechanic, that has all the professional, proper tools, in getting the old, stuck, pistons out of their bores.
Shop labor rates are $130.00 + dollars an hour where I'm at, and if i charged one half that, it would be a low labor rate.
They have been hand scrubbed clean in the solvent tank, then soaked out in a pail of Evaporust, to bring them back to bare metal condition, then painted up cast iron grey, with a spray can of VHT high heat paint.
And a can of VHT paint is now costing 13 bucks, at the parts stores, in my area.
I need to see $425.00.00 for these calipers with all the parts that go into them during the rebuild, my labor time in doing them, and the price that i had to pay for them in the beginning, and the kits, pistons, hard lines, paint.
Payment will be by Pay Pal, family or friends, or a good old fashioned USPS money order. And the delivery to you will be by the USPS, with insurance, and direct signature delivery at your residence.
I figure i will securely package them up in a USPS large flat rate box, to survive the journey from point A to point B, within the USPS system.
If your a serious buyer, and not a shopper, or tire kicker, send me a message thru this forum and i will give you my e mail address, and or telephone number, if you need to talk with me, with the time that you can contact me.
