Howe dual piston aluminum calipers - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I bought these calipers for my truck from summit. They don't have the rubber o-rings in them for the pins so they will "rattle around" without them. They're supposed to do this as they are circle track racing calipers. I've been told they can be machined for the o-rings...but I decided it's not worth it for me.

You can get all the particulars on them at summit: http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku

Anyways, I paid $200 for the set. I put them on the truck for test fitting. They have ZERO miles on them. I would just send them back to summit, but I don't have a box for them any more and I got them in October or so, so it's beyond their return policy period.

I'd like $175 for the pair (shipped).

I had them on my 68 Chevy C-10 (with 72 disk conversion). I think they're direct bolt ins for Chevelle and probably other full size cars also
