These cost no more then $120 for calipers at auto parts store and $55 for a set of pads.
why are you asking so much?
Because the ones you are gonna get are refurbished units and they were probably reman'd by national, dorman or duralast or someone like that. They also wont have COBRA embossed on them nor will they even look like these.
These are brand spanking new Ford units with the factory PBR pads and the factory anti-rattle clips and the pins. You can certainly get them at the auto parts store and tell me just how many days it is before they start rattling and squeeking over every bump...these wont do that. Besides, the Dorman units that you'll get will run you 120+120+55= 295 for a refurbished pair and a cheap set of pads.
After all, go to your local Ford dealer and ask them how much they'll sell you a pair of these. Over $400 PER SIDE! Yup. Ridiculous but true.
Im not trying to start an argument here, but you wont get authentic Cobra ones ANYWHERE for less than the $350 i am asking.
And i think that we can both agree that, American Muscle for example, gets better deals on these than your local parts stores do, and last time I checked American Muscle, they were selling these for $449.99 without pads, if my memory serves me correctly.
