Junkyard calipers saved my brakes, I was a fool for buying new
Replaced my seized calipers last month with $45 pull-offs from a 2005 Civic at Pull-A-Part in Phoenix, after my rebuild kit failed in 3 days, and now I'm wondering if anyone else swears by used calipers over reman ones for daily drivers?
That rebuild kit failing in 3 days is the universe's way of telling you to stop trying so hard. $45 for calipers that actually work beats $200 for new ones that make you feel fancy while your car sits in the driveway.
