So it was time to replace my brake and rotors and I guess my calipers too. I have a 1988 fc convertible and it has a 5 lug hub. I can’t find replacement calipers for it and they don’t exist in parts stores in person or online , is there any calipers form any other cars that would match or what do I do?

 

Why do you need to replace your calipers?

As long as the pistons aren't rusted and pitted you can replace the seals.

The caliper piston seems fine but using the brake tool, it wouldn’t go back in, and the dela was ripped, I ordered two rebuild kits for both rears, besides that the seal is ripped and the piston wouldn’t go in, just from what I’ve heard was to rebuild or replace, but i can’t find replacement so wondering what to do now?

 

Which tool are you using? The rear pistons turn to go back in, not push in like alot of other calipers. That said they can still be pretty hard to turn sometimes.
