WTB: Passenger Side, SC400 Front Brake Caliper Bracket
Title says it all.
My Front passenger side brake caliper bracket (metal piece w/ 2 captive rods that allow the caliper to float) is toast. One of the rods is seized so the caliper will not float like it is supposed to.
Since the SC400 has slightly larger front brakes, I'm assuming this is a SC400 part only. I don't believe there is a difference, but my car is a 93... I know that the later SC's went to unified (SC300 = SC400) brake sizes, but I'm not sure if that's the same as the early SC400 part.
I only need the bracket, not the entire caliper.... If someone would sell me this part by itself (for a reasonable price), I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks in Advance

you should be able to get the caliper bolt out with alot of PB spray or WD-40 and a Break bar. Just replace the caliper bolt after, they sell new one at autozone, its the caliper hardware kit. If you put to much force on the caliper bolt it will sometime break, so dont be dumb like me and use a 4 foot break bar. if it does break though, just drill it out, I did this and its still working fine 3 years later.

I tried chemicals, air tools (130lbs), breaker bar, mini sledge...
It's seriously seized in there.
I saw the pins for sale for ~12$ at auto shops, but I couldn't get that damaged pin out....
