[floppy]

i figure if someone searches for this topic, my last post could be the pot of gold they need... see you take info and you give info

I totally understand and appreciate the info. I was just surprised that it was revived. I subscribed to this thread a year and a half ago..

Anywho.. Thanks for the info.. I still haven't done the conversion yet.

Guess I need to get those calipers to you, huh?

i should add: disregard my above posts

the caliper bodies themselves are identical, however the pads and pistons are different........at least on the crown vics

For used parts? No.

For new parts? Not the best.

i have been reading about this conversion and came across people having to use a "spacer" or retaining plate on there D44 is that needed on a 8.25 axel?

No, it's not needed on an 8.25.
