A bit more expensive but I'd rather support a specialty dealer so I'm buying from him. Thanks for all your help. Hopefully, with a little luck, I'll have her back on the road by this weekend.

I'm not going to screw up my backing plates so I'm back to ground zero. Anybody have a rebuild-able LH original wheel cylinder? I found that my RH is OK to rebuild.
