thebigblue Date registered: Jan 2012 Location: Vehicle(s): | Rear brake calibers - source Been trying to find a source for a new or refurbished set of rear calibers for my G400, sadly no luck. It might be that these are a bit special though, ´cause I have been able to find front calibers (make ATE), but no rear ones. Any insights most appreciated since the OEM MB part has a hefty price tag. Thanks Edited by thebigblue 4/5/2018 1:53 PM | ||

thebigblue Date registered: Jan 2012 Location: Vehicle(s): | Re: Rear brake calibers - source Thanks BlueG, that would make sense indeed, around same amount of horsepower/torque I think. I will try to get the part no from my dealer. Would you have a US source? It seems I have no luck with google. | ||

BlueG Elite Veteran Date registered: Aug 2009 Location: DC Vehicle(s): 2003 G500 Posts: 714 | Re: Rear brake calibers - source I can't find anything under A0004200978 or 79. But if they are in fact the same as the US G550 rear calipers then that would also make the same as the 02-08 G500 rear calipers. Do you have trouble ordering the states and having shipped to the EU? I am sure a dealer in the states could do that for you however you would likely have to order based on a USA model - for example a 2005 G500 so they could look it up in MBUSA parts. | ||

That is a good price (I am thinking I paid in the $250-300 range but can't remember). Hopefully that dealer can ship out for you. If they cannot just message me and I will order and ship to Denmark for you. | ||
