silverstude 0 Posted November 13 Report Share Posted November 13 If you have Turner Brakes maybe, but the 83 Avanti came from the factory with Studebaker Bendix/Dunlop Disk Brakes Quote Link to post Share on other sites
64studeavanti 0 Posted November 13 Report Share Posted November 13 (edited) If they are indeed the bendix/dunlop you can purchase new sumitomo calipers from parts geek for around $80 each. They are labeled for Nissan. There are the correct 2 1/8. I believe larger 2 1/4 are also available that will fit into the caliper brackets. Look for 64 Jag XKE.

silverstude 0 Posted November 13 Report Share Posted November 13 Yes, Toyota Crown used the exact same piston at 2.25". If you go that route, ask about the crossover pipes also as they may be Metric thread. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PackardV8 0 Posted November 18 Report Share Posted November 18 Do not believe most internet parts searches. The Summit/Jegs/Rock Auto, et al, pay that cheap whore Google to put their listing at the top, regardless of whether they have ever stocked that part. Then, when you click on it, the closest random collection of junk pops up. (Do I feel strongly about this? Yes, as they waste hours of my time when I know exactly what I'm trying to buy, but they hijack my search.} jack vines Quote Link to post Share on other sites
