Hi... On Thursday afternoon (5/7/2009), I left my 1975 Bricklin at a "Just
Brakes" shop in Colorado Springs for brake work - new booster, new pads, new
hoses, and to have the front calipers rebuilt. The manager told me he could
get all brand new parts from Centrex for Friday (5/8/2009), and that the car
would be finished the same day. Well, I picked up the car at 5 pm yesterday,
so he was true to his word. 

I  asked  the  manager  several  times  if  the brake  booster  was  new.
He  said  yes,  it  was not a rebuild  unit.  I  hope  that  was  true,  as
I  paid  $437  for  that  part!  I believe a rebuilt booster from Cardone is
priced around $120. 


In case that helps someone, here are the Centrex parts numbers for a 1975
Bricklin with the Kelsey Hayes brakes:

CEN 10200850  Disc pads front

CEN 14364009  Calipers rebuild kit LF and RF

CEN 15063058  Hoses LF and RF

CEN 11763002  Disc hardware front

CEN 16080171  Power booster

PS: The Just Brakes manager also told me he can get the rotors - I asked him
for the part numbers and a price. I should know on Monday or Tuesday.
