4 thousand miles away!
Hello to all,
Being 4 thousand miles from home I need some help ! I have a simple front caliper brake problem and no solution!!!
I have to replace the pin assembly on both front calipers on my 1985 F-250 4x4. These are the pins that hold the calipers to the kingpin assembly, I have a bit of play in them and it clunks bad around corners.
I have to find a website to order these as where I am F-250's are about as common as watering holes for oysters!
If anyone has a good website address, don't hesitate !
Thanks,
Magic

Mike,
Thought I'd post something. Don't know if this is what you're looking for. I've never done business with them. I am giving the link of their shipping faq. You can follow the links to their home page:

Also, I've found several sites which will ship to an APO or a FPO. Does the FPO stand for "Foreign Post Office"? R.A.

I had the same problem. I put 4 small weld spot beads on each and then filed them flat in the V where the pins go. Tightened the pins right up, no rattles, everything is good to go. Mine only had to be about 1/16" high after filing it flat to fix the rattle. Did that 5 or 6 years ago, still no rattle.
