Hi all -

I bought a 99 Ford Explorer 8.8 rear axle with disc brakes for use in my Jeep Cherokee.

Unfortunately, there are no calipers on the axle.

Are there any good (cheap) sources for new or used calipers other than the junkyard, or does every one have a core charge?

If you know anywhere to buy them online without a core, or have a set, I would appreciate the info!

TIA

Josh

I will get you a price for brand new ones tomorrow. My price is a little better than you may expect

Thanks!

Josh

Get in the zone....$12 ea with Core....not to bad w/o if I remember right...

oh and QUIT BUYING OUR AXLES! you are dirving the prices up! hahahaha

uhh, buy them from auto zone then. thats killer

You drive an XJ and your on our Explorer forum? We have a spy!:D j/k

So I guess the Cherokee is now what 10% Explorer since you put in the rear axle..

What does that make my truck?? 70% Explorer, 10% Mercury Mountaineer, 5% Ranger, 5% Aerostar and 10% BII?

I have parts, all Ford, from everything....84 to 2001 on my truck :)

What does that make my truck??
A Mutt!!!!! :-)

Where are you seeing them for $12? All autozones I know of, including their internet site, want around $35 for the caliper and $47 core.

My local autozone wants a $50 core.

TheRookie - I would still like to see your source!

You are right Josh, I just did a search for new calipers.. Damn.. You might want to try a junk yard, I know but sometimes you find a good one..
