disk brake calipers 120-130

I am rebuilding my 3 piston calipers on our 1123GT. I was unable to get new ones (back ordered) so I went for kits with new pistons, but now the pistons for the calipers are back ordered too. I used to have the name of a vendor that makes/sells stainless pistons for these. Does anyone on the board know where I can get them? I am told that the girling and lockheed calipers are the same as some Jags

I have a 68' 130 and got the parts to rebuild my 3 piston front callipers from Rockauto
The service was very good and they took care of all the customs paperwork to get the parts to Oshawa Ontario.
Worth checking them out
Good luck

Where in Canada are you? I’m in Montreal, when I did the calipers the most economical way do it was send my calipers out to a rebuilder, Cost about the same as getting the rebuild kits.

Have you tried VP-autoparts, CVI Automotive or Joe Lazenby in PA ?

It is VP that is back ordered on calipers and pistons for the kits. I am trying to source the pistons myself.
Thanks for the input.

I'm pretty sure they aren't stainless, but I can get a full set of 6 pistons, 2 large and 4 small, for $150.00 plus shipping.

The large pistons are in a local warehouse, but the smaller pistons are in a warehouse on the East Coast and it will take 4-5 days to get to me unless you want to spend another $30.00 for express shipping.

FYI, I have a full set of original Volvo caliper pistons, but the price is over double.
