REFLECTOR: Fwd: RE: Brake Upgrade

[Scott Derrick]

I got this from Matco in response to a query about upgrading my brakes.


>Mr. Derrick,
>The modification requires you to send your brake calipers to us (the entire
>brake assembly) so that we can modify the caliper housing to accept 1.50
>inch diameter pistons.  There are a few components in the brake that also
>get changed.  The conversion is just over $100 per caliper.  We can also
>upgrade the linings at the same time for $41.40 for both calipers (Normally
>51.75 for the reline kit and we install for no charge).
>
>We do not need the brake plate (the plate attached to the axle that the
>caliper floats on) when you send them back.  We will provide you with a
>Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number if you opt to send them back
>for the conversion.
