WANTED Looking for any Chrysler 69-73 driver side brake caliper. Preferably unseized, but price negotiable if seized.

EDIT: I found one on autozone after weeks of watching. For anyone with a similar issue wait for restock on some websites is my advice.


As title says. Any C body 1969-1973 should have the front driver side caliper I need. Mine was seized, and I soaked both sides in vinegar to loosen them. One of them came out clean and I was able to force the old piston out and rebuild it. The other- I haven’t had good luck with. The bleeder screw hole is now much larger for some reason after soaking and I’m unsure if it’s even worth saving with it still being stuck.

Here’s some photos for reference of my car (1973 Chrysler Newport) and what I’m looking for. Thank you for your time.

You stock these @mobileparts?

I've been dismantling my '73 Satellite, I took the calipers off, I wonder if they'll be similar to what the OP is looking for. I'll take a pic.

That B-body caliper is probably too narrow for the C-body. We've had a few go through this before and it's a 1/4" difference.

Calipers and disc brake problem-ID needed

What's the key measurement? Distance between slide/guide pins? Piston diameter?

Look at the two links I posted.

Ah yes. 2.75 inches for the B-body caliper:

Tell me - what year did MoPar go to having a separate rotor? (separate from the hub)
