The Kelsey-Hayes Disk Brake Swap Thread

Good info Dan. Might I also add that if you do have rusty calipers in need of carefull resto,Evaporust saved mine. The above mentioned grooves that hold on the boot may be badly rusted or gone. Hi temp silicone might help seal and hold the boots in place. One big problem area with these calipers. Over many years of use,the glide area for the pads becomes grooved,or even notched and will cause the caliper to stick. I am thinking this area could be machine down and a new material seated to give new life. Not a machinist so have no clue if it could be done,or the cost,lol..just a thought.
