Looking for a lead on steel caliper pistons in 60mm and the seals to rebuild them
After a little more searching, I think this is the part number you’re looking for. Raybestos DPS85423
They’re out there for sure.
ETA: When is searched my email using the part number, it came up at around the time I replaced the calipers in my CSX. That part number should definitely work.
why steel ? just curious i prefer the non steel type myself since it doesn't rust
that "plastic" is similar to the plastic insulator found on the carb 2.2 starters' solenoidsQuote:

instead of being the plastic it originally was.. it becomes chalk-like .. such that you can scrape away material with your thumbnail until there's nothing left
so you never wanna wear the brake pads all the way to the backing plates with plastic pistons
Circle track racing..
I would say just buy some remaned calipers for an LH car and choose the steel piston option but Cardone has gotten really bad about reusing those as of recent.
Even that raybestos part number looks to be on its way out.
. The car is used for endurance racing. Heat build up is a real issue. At Road Atlanta we are doing 108 to 110 to 35 MPH braking while going down hill. As previously stated the plastic pistons don’t like lots of heat.Quote:

cool ..more stuff to add to my need it list

What front brake package are you using ? I mention the LH calipers because they are a drop on replacement for the 91 and newer front brakes with the separate bolt on caliper bracket.
