Hi,
I am looking for lower ball joints for my 1968 Chrysler New Yorker.

Any help or leads would be great.

Hi,
Anyone here purchased the remanufactured Budd brake calipers (Cardone) from say Summit.
I am thinking of getting a pair to replace my badly pitted ones on my 68 New Yorker
I can re sleeve mine but here in Australia they want $100 per bore, $400 a caliper, that’s without pistons and seals.
Are the Cardone ones junk ? what do they do to refurbish them ?
Any information on these Cardone remanufactured ones would be great.
Thanks guys for your help.

Gavin.
