Photos 281 - 282 - Original calipers before teardown and cleaning. Cleaning was like many of my previous cleanings. Citrus degreaser then soaking in Evaporust. Then coat with RPM or Rust Veto or alike. Currently I am using up my RPM as it seems to work very well.
Photo 283 - Results of bracket line brackets and lines after cleaning. These are original finishes. Nothing was rezinc'd or refinished.
Photos 284 - 286 - Calipers after cleaning. I did have to buy new pad pins as the originals were MIA as noted in previous photo as someone had installed a nail in place of one of them in the cars past. I will have to send these out as 2 of the 8 bores are pitted so stainless sleeves will be needed. Note black paint still present on the rears of the calipers.
