| Jack,
I want to get the car back on the road quickly and as I calculate the
difference in price will be about $100. Not hardly worth my time to clean and
paint the old calipers, let alone the piston/boot agravation. Been there, done
that (20 years ago!).
Ken

Subject: Re: [Healeys] new BJ8 calipers
Ken, there are only two places where brake fluid can leak out of a caliper:
either the piston seals or the O-ring between  both halves. For both cases one
can get replacement parts, much much cheaper than new calipers. Or do you
print your own Dollar bills?

        Moss offers new BJ8 calipers. Anybody have anything bad to say about 
them?
        I see this morning that I have a leaker.
        Thanks,
