Calipers

I was rebuilding the calipers today on my 88 f150. The phenolic piston had a small chunk missing so I put the drivers back together and I didn’t even bother with the passenger since it needs new calipers. Where should I get new calipers? Should I get new, rebuilt? Can I get them from Ford still? I’m trying to get some steel position calipers but I’m not sure where to find those yet I did some research but not much I will research more tonight but I wanted your inputs on it.

Lifetime rebuilt calipers from Autozone work and are cheap and easy IMO
I am sure you can do better if you want to spend some big money
Ford sells new Loaded calipers and do some aftermarket parts stores
Some of the rebuilt ones look all rusty and crappy but that does not affect the performance
I run em
