Brake Calipers
I need a new passanger side brake caliper.
Im looking on automotive sites to buy one and some list descriptions that say
"semi-loaded"
"fully loaded"
"loaded"
whats this all mean?
also if i replace one side is it recommended to replace both sides?
I know for a fact that the passanger side caliper is messed up. if i get a performance caliper will it effect the braking because i only replaced one?
Im thinking while im at it i want to replace the brake lines with some stainless steel braided lines. i will need 2"-4" longer than stock. anyone have links or info?
guess it all comes down to is if i should replace both or just one? also if i goto a performance caliper does anyone know if i will have issue with clearance? my wheels are within a 1/4" of the caliper now.
thanks

that is pretty pricy. if i can find the right ones summit has them for 20 each.

Well 315$ later i have new calipers and new brake lines.
I went to a Brake MFG shop and he special ordered the fittings and has DOT certified Stainless Steel Braided line. HE makes the lines custom fit for your aaplication. so that is costing $110
Then i went to NAPA and bought a left and right side caliper at $70 bucks each that come with the caliper and bracket. plus $60 core charge.
hope it all works good. lol
