#22086, "Does anyone know anything about Auto Zone's stock replacement calipers?"




          

I am looking into getting GSX calipsers, and they are priced good from auto zone, but they are made by "Fenco Reman." I was wondering if anyone has had experience with their calipers, and if I should get them, or stay away. If I can use my stock calipers for a core (auto zone workers are dumb for the most part) then they are about $50 each.

How about the brackets and stuff? Can you get those from autozone and just switch the gs brackets with the gsx ones?

Fenco is fine... Napa is cheaper.

Hey I work at AutoZone, try to pull that on me, buy gsx calipers and return your stock calipers as a core. Nah just kidding, I could care less, it's a billion dollor company.
