KRnetHeads, I'm going to throw this out as a lesson learned, and people can do what they want with it. I was looking through the brake master cylinders tonight (trying to identify mine), and have spent time looking at caliper prices when I needed spare parts for the Clevelands on N56ML. Don't let price be your guide on these. Clevelands are just plain obscenely priced. High price does not necessarily mean higher quality. My experience with Matco cylinders and calipers is that they are high quality. You can pay over $500 EACH for a Cleveland brake cylinder, or you can pay $105 for a comparably rated Matco. Other contenders such as Tracy Obrien and Grove offer similar savings. Another example is wheels...you can pay $25 for an Azusa wheel with bearings, or you can pay $1050 for a Cleveland wheel the same size. You can buy four Azusa wheels for the price of one Cleveland wheel cover! The Asuzas aren't quite the work of art of a Cleveland, but I'm pretty sure they are lighter, just fine for KR work, and you're going to hide them under wheel pants anyway. Don't think you have to spend big bucks to get good brakes...
