Default Re: Dana 44 rear disc conversion 5 lug, drum type parking e-brake vs Eldorado/Seville combo calipers?

Awwww dangit... the Scoggin Dickies Parts Center price was too good to be true!

"We apologize for the inconvenience but this part is not available and on back order, we have no ETA. We will refund account."


NAPA still show the AC Delco part numbers in their system, website says I can pick them up locally TOMORROW if ordered.
The NAPA versions are even coated/painted. Perhaps they are not AC Delco? It says Eclipse, but comes up under searching the AC Delco part # specifically, not an OEM part # or other Cardone, Centric, Wagner etc part #. Shows Part #: CAL SE4690 for the driver's side AC Delco #18FR792
https://www.napaonline.com/en/p/SEBSE4690
and

$146 each plus shipping (core included)

Oh...and NAPA shows that the Seville was only 1980-1985, the rest are 1979-1985, and the Trans Am only 1979-1981 (different part # from the others anyway).

Well I just paid $280 for the pair of calipers... Would've been about $215 or 220 from RockAuto.com for the readily available Centric brand remanufactured units, but I really wanted to go top quality on brakes, after a slew of chinese clutch masters and slaves failing in 14 years...
+ $80+shipping for the brackets from OldeDays Classic Parts
at least the AWD 1990-2002 AWD front rotors can be had for $35/each all day long! (still have to check on diameter vs the diameter recommended for those brackets, but they do list both Camaro/Trans Am AND Cadillac rotors, which I was not certain if they were both the same diameter or not?
pads are cheap and readily available, and I believe the same as the fronts...




FYI OEM caliper #'s, from a Cadillac forum post, are:
