Corvette guys, need caliper replacement advice
 

I have some leaking calipers in my Vette. I just want to keep things stock and am wondering what vendor people are liking for correct casting number SS sleeved calipers. I've heard some good things about lone star.

Lone Star are Great people to work with. They will rebuild, and send your original calipers back looking like new!

x4 with Lonestar if you want to keep your original calipers. If it does not matter it is a lot less expensive and quicker to just buy new rebuild calipers from Zip-Corvette or Paragon.

X5 Lone Star, or if the bores are not rusted rebuild them yourself. That is what I did. There are a few Youtube videos out there that help. The two hardest parts of the rebuild are getting the pistons out of the bore with the compressed air, and getting the pistons back in the bore without tearing up the seal.
