1971 Caliper!

[Alice71]

Evening all!

I am looking for a passenger side brake caliper for my 1971.

The bleed nipples on the caliper which is on at the moment, are badly corroded and I was looking to replace them. Unfortunately they are not easy to come out I have tried welding 12mm nuts on the end which has worked for 2 of them but not the other 2.

I was looking to buy a new one but the she is heading to the paint shop after christmas so pennys are tight!!

Can anyone help?

I've got one of a 72 crossover


Why didn't I buy my bus years ago !?

File bleed screw level with caliper get the right size easyout, tap into bleed screw and scew it out. Ive done it many times and never failed. I lot cheaper than buying new caliper.

I have tried the easyouts and have broken two!! So decided the only way forward is to source a replacement.
