front caliper switch w/o brake bleed? 200 87

posted by  someone claiming to be Phil Stone on  Tue Dec 11 23:26 CST 2001 [RELATED]

On my wife's '87 240 the rotors(vented) are shot and the RF caliper has a frozen piston.In my back yard I have an '83 245GL parts car with good brakes,although solid rotors.Can I switch calipers/rotors(both Girling)onto the '87? Will the mounting bolts line up, can I clamp off the flex hoses to switch calipers w/o bleeding?

Thanks,Phil
