RE: [DMCForum] The Mercury Capri



Well, I just ran up to Advance to verify it. I had them look up the 76, 77,
and 78 Mercury Capri rear brake calipers and they all had identical part
numbers: 19-244 for the driver's and 19-245 for the passenger's. So, if one
is wrong they are all wrong because it wouldn't matter what year I ordered,
I'd get the same calipers.

I'll know for sure Saturday when I got to install them.
