W250 Caliper Adapter (Bracket)

Postby strix » Thu Sep 24, 2015 5:32 pm

Hi everyone, first time poster but a long-time (unregistered) lurker here. Usually I get tons of information from you guys without ever having to post. Well, I've run into an issue with my caliper adapters being a bit worn. I'd like to replace them but there are no good vehicles in the boneyard in my area (Northeast). Ebay is pretty limited last time I checked and I also haven't been able to find the parts new. I've got the Bendix calipers on the D60F. Does anyone know of a source for these? Or, maybe they happen to have a decent pair laying around?

If your talking the big cast piece that's part of the steering knuckle, no, its not replaceable, unless you go with an off road companies piece, big $$$. If it's worn bad enough, you can have it welded and machined back into spec.
Otherwise, the keepers, the bolts, the pieces that fall out when you disassemble, there easily replaceable.
Can you post a pix? We can easily identify if its repairable or not

I'm talking about № 31. It looks like it can be removed. Although, you make a good point about welding it and machining it back to spec. Now all I need is the specs... :/

I just did a search on Ebay after replying and the truck gods have answered my prayers. :D
