In Reply to: HELP--Reman fron calipers? ('86 L7) posted by art p on January 27, 2002 at 12:56:30:
It appears my '87 L7 needs front calipers, and I need opinions/advice on new vs. remanufactured parts. I;m not certain, but I recall that someone once advised that I avoid reman'd calipers. I've just spent much on various repairs--and, after leaving the car with Checkpoint BMW, Buffalo, NY, virrtualyl all last summer, I still need to a.) get a/c reworked (i.e., installed new compressor, receiver-dryer--but output is barely cool and is grossly insufficient); b.) cruise switch--maybe control unit--replaced. Accordingly, cost is an issue; if I can get by with rebuilt calipers @ $75 (rather than $200), I may be able to get the car on the road for my son (US Navy, Charleston, SC). Any help will be much appreciated.
