Re: Previous owner '68

I decided to rebuild the brake calipers I have. I know, rebuilds are cheap, but I like to learn and do so I have always rebuilt them myself. It's not that hard.

Unfortunately, when I went to install them the caliper pins would not line up on the drivers side spindle.

I had heard that some of the aftermarket drop spindles have this problem but I suspect the true problem is the poor casting quality of the aftermarket calipers. The passengers side caliper I had is an original and it fit fine with room to spare.
