caliper brackets: ‘76-‘78 B- body w/pin- type calipers
« on: May 04, 2011 - 10:25:02 PM »
hey,
i'm after a set of caliper brackets from a ‘76-‘78 B- body w/pin- type calipers.

i posted this in the parts wanted section but thought i'd add it here as well just in case.

i live in new zealand so unfortunately don't have access to junk yards where parts like this may be found.

any help would be very much appreciated.
also, if anyone knows of a source other than junkyards where they could be bought please let me know.

cheers!
aaron

they list them by different names....I used mopar caliper brackets....sometimes it helps to leave off "brackets" and search thru more entries in hope of finding something.

See that guy ships to lower 48 only...you can have them sent to someone here for reshipping. 

His price seems a bit high..think I paid $75 or so about 18 months ago...guess his paint and new pins are worth something, tho :)

Aaron - how fast do you want these? I live in BC Canada but our son is soon relocating to NZ to do his Airline Pilot licence. With him he will be bringing his 73 Charger and we can throw these in the trunk. Car will be shipped late June so goes thru Japan then to Auckland. I bought mine for $20CDN from a wrecker fellow. Will look in the local pick-a-part if you can wait. All the best from this old Taupiri boy near Huntly.
