Oh, I would bet heavily on you needing replacement rear calipers, Bryan.:yesnod:

That is a useful site, Mike, and not a bad price for reconditioned calipers. Interestingly you can get old stock New calipers for about the same price on ebay.

However, I would, in this case, go for the reconned ones, as the troublesome handbrake mechanism bearing is usually replaced by a trouble-free nylon sleeve.
