Question: Pathfinder Calipers???

I know we use the same PAD as the 90s pathfinder....but do we have the same caliper? Like, could I go to the junkyard, find a pathfinder, grab its calipers, take em home, powdercoat em, and install em in my SVX?

I thought we used Mitsubishi Calipers but don't quote me on that.

The calipers have the Mitsubishi star cast into them, but I don't know what the cross references for other vehicles are.

I won't. I'm pretty sure the calipers have the FHI logo stamped on them.

But don't quote me on that.

So, to answer your question, Rob, 'I don't think so.'

The rear calipers are made by Akebono, a Japanese company which uses a three triangle symbol, not the three diamond symbol of Mitsubishi.

Easy

I sell Mitsubishi (injection molding machines) and drive by an Akebono facility on the outskirts of Detroit

I'm like 90% sure they're the same calipers, I was just double checking. Where are the old school all-knowing members?

Do a search. LOL I recall a thread about which parts are interchangeable with what other parts.
