      Wanting them and needing them are 2 different things. But as said they are the same.

        They are the same to each other, but they are NOT the same as the STANDARD calipers!

        There was a recent, last month or so post by someone trying to get folks interested in a group buy for some custom made stainless steel ones for specials, a search would probably show it. Don't know if it's still going to happen or not??

          I'm

          still working on it TC. Hoping the man will come thru and anyone will be able to order direct from him at a set price. Trying to get them at $20 each plus cheap ship. If he comes thru I will post so you can make a sticky. Keep your fingers crossed.

          BTW- I want him to supply all types. I have 3 samples at present. The 81 MNS front, back and another front that I am not sure of.
