We are putting a G.M. 10 Bolt W/Disc Brakes under a Sedan Selivery Project. The seller told us it was a 76-78 Rear End. We can't ceem to find Calipers & Pads for it. There is the following number Stamped on the Housing Tube 2MEG82051 Any ideas of what year/model this would be? Or where we might be able to find out? Any & all help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much. Ken
i think you are looking for the wrong year...try 79 to 81..z28 and firebird w/ rear disc brake..just looked on "auto parts giant" web site and it came right up.. good luck
What was the website address of the Auto Parts Giant you looked it up in when it "Just came right up"?? How did you enter it? (#2MEG82501?) I could really use that information. Thank you very much Ken
Do you have an old caliper? More than likely its a T/a rearend.. The cadillac calipers will also fit ... The T/a units have a rather large counter weight on the e brake lever .... If you dont have cores these calipers maybe very pricey
http://www.autopartsgiant.com/CAT_FRAMEX.cfm i just looked up camaro z28 brake parts, caliper and hoses...shows 76 on up..different part # late 77 to 81..funny thing, no listing for rear pads..loaded calipers listed...if you still cant find a source online i can go down to the parts store i am retired from in the morning and get you all the part #s and info you need...pm me if you need my help.. dave
also i have a buddy who is parts manager at the local chevy dealership, i can work from your #s on monday... dave
If the price of the TA or Caddy rear calipers catches you off guard (the cheapest rebuilt ones I found were $70 each plus a $75 core charge not to mention the h***le trying to get them adjusted), I believe you can use GM G-body front calipers if you don't need the parking brake feature. I was told they were the same except for the parking brake mechanism and after looking at them I believe it. Just some handy info that might help someone. Al
