Well I guess it's time to buy new front calipers for my '77 242. I have some used, but good, vented rotors, so I'll order calipers for vented brakes and install my vented rotors to replace my original type solids. Or I could consider cross-drilled, new rotors depending on price.

I'm wondering about Rock Auto for calipers or IPD. What are all of you using as brake sources currently? I haven't ordered brake parts for quite a while so am out of the loop as to best products and where to get them.

Pretty sure I want new and not re-man; besides that way I'm not dealing with shipping cores.

Thoughts appreciated,
Dennis in rural E WA state
