NAPA remanufactured cailpers...
Hey all. I am needing to replace my front calipers an was wondering if the remanufactured ones would be ok? I want to upgrade the front brakes in the future, but right now I just need them to work
Thanks in advance.

I worked in an auto shop (goodyear) for a few years and found the reman calipers and other parts are good. the only problem i ever had was if you get "loaded" calipers, thats when the pads are in the box, they were cheep and made a loud metal noise. go with a good set of pads.

I replaced mine from advance, all the same. MAke sure to replace the hoses at the same time. Its worth it.

Re: NAPA remanufactured cailpers...
Ok, thanks guys. I'm not going to get the loaded calipers. I'm going to re-use the Hawks pads I have on the car. They are about a year and half old. Going to get some Earl's lines from Spohn. I may also get new rotors if needed.
