Where to buy brake calipers?
Okay guys, I'm fed up with this company I've tried ordering from...
I ordered from PartsTrain.com, which is one of many clone sites operated by Auto Parts Warehouse or whatever they're calling themselves nowadays. I ordered two fronts and two rears, with all hardware and brackets. The rears came as they should, no problems.
The fronts were the wrong part number. So I sent them back (at my expense) and re-ordered, this time making it explicitly clear to the guy on the other end of the phone that I was to get the right part number and it would come with exactly what was advertised. About a week later the parts showed up. Lo and behold, the exact same wrong part numbers. Thankfully they paid for their own mistake this time around. But they told me that if I ordered the parts, they couldn't guarantee that I would receive the parts I ordered. Is that freaking ridiculous or what!? What a crock!
So I need another source for brake calipers that isn't linked to this web chain. They have the calipers with mounting brackets and hardware for $77 each (no core charge either). Subaru dealer will only sell the entire bundle (caliper, hardware, pads), and for $300 each. No way. I already have pads anyway.
Anyone know a place that's more reliable but still has decent pricing?
