Just to clarify, the manufacturers name is ALTROM not ULTRAM. It's what happens when you have a Scotsman and Englishman talking!

Altrom are a Canadian company and supply a lot of repair shops and NAPA and other parts outlets. I bought my refurb'd parts from Auto Value in Calgary NW.

Part numbers are: RFC 22-9337L and RFC 22-9337R.

Cost was about $115 CDN/ea including shipping (about $85 US). These are loaded, supposedly, with bracket, caliper and slider pins. I'll add to this when they get here from Vancouver and Montreal.

Final update. The rear calipers are NOT reman'd by ALTROM. They are a large supplier to the trade. The part was reman'd by a company called Nu-geon. Part number is still correct.

Caliper comes with, mounting bracket, slider pins, new ( but cheap looking) slider rubber bushes and caps, and the brake pad pin. Nice part is it looks like the caliper and bracket look like they are powder coated.

Hope this is the final installment. Just waiting for the RH caliper to arrive!

The info on this posting could be a godsend, since my mechanic changed the rear hoses without checking either whether the new calipers were correct, or whether the old could be bled (nope, nope). Now, how about the backing plates?
