: HELP! Need parts ASAP, cant find in my area.
Ramstein 10-15-2002, 05:58 PM I know this belongs in the Wanted area but im in a desperate rush.
Im looking for a caliper bolt and bushings for a mid '70s chevy disk break caliper. I found the bolt at the local dealership but they want $25.00 for it :eek: but thet dont have and cant get the sleave/bushing.
Hook a brutha up, I need it by this thursday night.
Thanks

I know, I know :flipoff2: I bet there must be hundreds of chevy trucks at the various junk yards around but im a good 45 minutes from any of them and the real problem is finding the time to go to one of them in the next two days.

You might try the Midas here in Camarillo. Let me know if they have it and I will pick it up and bring it out to you.. Also I have a buddy that does brakes in Camarillo in a small shop he ususally has a ton of spare parts laying around I will ask him.
Let me know if you need me to pick something up for you. We want to watch you Get It this weekend..

Right on Doug, thanks. I'll call Midas in the AM, if they have it I can stop by on my way to work. If they dont, I'll give ya a call.
welndmn 10-16-2002, 10:23 AM whew, i check some prices on-line and most cost 20 bucks.
I am pretty sure i have a few, so let me know and i will dig them out of the bucket.
But like someone else said, go to any mechinc, they have a bucket full of them, they will let you dig through

oldjeep 10-16-2002, 01:05 PM If you get desperate, just get some rebuilt calipers. $17 at Napa last time I bought them. they come with new sleeves and orings. The caliper bolts at NAPA were about $10 each last time I bought them.
BnTMike 10-16-2002, 01:37 PM anytime I order loaded calipers from napa they come with new bolts and slider bushings... Fast way to get your parts
