i had unsual wear on my front brakes that only lasted 10k miles... after taking the brakes apart, i found that the i could only compress 3 out of the 4 pistons.. the last one was rusted solid.. to make matters worse, it was BOTH sides!!! long story short, after trying to locate new calipers, i was only able to locate one pass. side rebuilt one by luck searching through a few non-SE caliper boxes... there is definatley a difference in the size, mainly the bolt holes for the caliper bolts to the steering knuckle... it was about a 1/2" off.. just FYI, if you're in need of SE 13" calipers, do a good search or plan on having yours rebuilt.... i'm having my driver's side rebuilt now.. this might only be around here in NY, but no one has them.. if you are buying rebuilt ones, make sure you check and double check the bolt holes and make sure you are getting SE capilers. it;ll save you a lot of going back and forth.... the casting # on them are 13WH.. hopefully i'll have them done by today and have everything back together ASAP!
