Why DAGS? I find the cheapest best fastest car parts by using WTDS...and their CRI is phenomenal.

It looks like they are just competing with Amazon by brokering things
from 3d party sellers.

It's tough to be competitive when you up-charge the original vendor
by 20,739%.

Seriously, why do you need new calipers? Are they rusted and frozen
or leaking or what? Couldn't you rebuild them fairly easily?

Rusted but no longer frozen. Left rear was hung up and dragging.
I PB-Blasted it and exercised it 3-4 times and it seems OK - for now.

Odds are it will last until mid-February when the temps will be in the
teens with winds around 50 knots and 16" of snow on the ground. Repairs
are done outside and doing repairs in those conditions really, really
sucks. BTDT

It needs pads anyway and for ~$75 each side I can get loaded calipers (pads,
all new hardware, brackets, etc.) Basically Plug & Play. BTDT too.

That be the stuff. There are other brands of penetrating catalysts, but PB Blaster has worked for me on many occasions, including this one.

Interesting. In the area I currently live, corrosion isn't a very big
issue and I haven't dealt with it very much for many years. Which is
nice as the life and total cost of ownership of vehicles can be much
better.

Wood rot, insect damage and wildfires are far more prevalent then
rust. However, I am not trying to change the topic

Why DAGS? I find the cheapest best fastest car parts by using WTDS...and their CRI is phenomenal.

What is WTDS?
