front left calliper leak

[frankstein65]

anybody knows what caliper this is? Maybe I should just replace both fronts. I'm sure I would have to replace the spindle.

Sassy said Granada so I looked up granada and it's possible 1979. I checked with Rock Auto and it looks like the same Caliper. Not sure if I want to replace it or just rebuild it. My rotor doesn't look to good either. I'm going to order the two front replacements as I'm sure the passenger side is no better.

Very good time to consider 65 spindles brakes and all.
Complete kits available, basically early Mustang stuff so
will be around forever.

can you suggest a kit as I don't see one with the spindles. Is it 65 comet, mustang, falcon???

I guess basically I don't see any wrong with the Granada stuff, basically pretty inexpensive and you probably will not ever change them out again most likely, unless you drive it a lot.

Has to be cheaper than a kit to fix what you have, but I don't like spending my money

See Ya,

Well guys, he's taking about replacing calipers and rotors, will end up doing the bearings and a tierod and balljoint or two,,, so add a pair of spindles and get the correct geometery too. Plus its Mustang it'll be around for ever and easy to get. Was my thinking on it.
