WTB: Front Brake Calipers
 
Hi,
I'm looking to buy some very good condition front brake calipers.
In the Virgin Islands they cost around $170.00 per caliper. (Ouch!)
So hit me up.
thanks,
sid

Not trying to thwart a sale but Subaru sells a caliper rebuild kit that is around $40 for both front calipers. It includes all 4 dust boots, new piston o-rings, special grease, etc, and it's fairly straight forward to install. I did it on mine. It does require a compressor to unseat the pistons from the calipers.

It's amazing that our lives depend so heavily on one small rubber o-rings for stopping.
