I am looking for a pair of rear calipers for a 89 9 Bolt. The need to be working new or used.
Thanks

PBR's are available from auto parts stores. I purchased mine from AutoZone, IIRC.

I was trying to avoid paying what they are going for, I am on a limited budget. I bought repair kits but the Pistons are seized in the calipers. I have no use for the kits now so I am trying the next cheapest solution.

Do you still have your old ones? What were they off of?

Re: 89 PBR rear calipers

One of the Calipers is removed and the other is still on the car. I am purchasing a rebuilt pair and when I get them installed the other will be removed. They are off a 89 Iroc. The one caliper that I pulled has a siezed piston. This may be fixable but I didnt want to fool with it. If they were not repairable they would make good core turn ins at least. Of course they wont be available until I have the new ones installed.
Thanks
