Kelsey Hayes KH80012 disc brake caliper

[jetmech]

Looking for a passenger RH side Kelsey Hayes KH80012 disc brake caliper for my '70 Cuda. I have the driver LH side see below pictures for reference. Any condition is fine as would I would like to get mine rebuilt anyway. If you have a RH one or a set of KH calipers let me know.  Vic

He's looking for a 1970 "Large Hole" caliper, not the later small hole ones.

You are right Alan, I'm looking for the "wide mouth" casting. The ones on eBay are most likely the later small opening versions even though pictures show the kh800012 casting.

@FlatlandTA thanks for taking a look, let me know

            Thats interesting that 2 different calipers can have the same casting #. Learn somethin new every day.

Crazy thing is Jim V had a set for sale asking $500 just for the wide mouth calipers & they sold....

I'm still doing in depth research on this caliper. How can this part have the same casting # and the same date code and still be different  It's kinda like that master cylinder Alan is always looking for. It appears these calipers were AAR/TA specific, or maybe big block cars also. Does this show up on the build sheet @Cuda Cody ?  This info makes this forum the best.

Not on the sheet that I can recall.

Hmmmm, so it's not specified on the build sheet, but it's a different caliper.  Makes no sense. @6bblgt can you weigh in on this. ??

I believe the:
casting # KH 80012 is '70 ONLY (BIG clearance)
&
casting # KH 86166 is '71-'72 (small clearance)

I don't think KH 80012 was available both sizes  but they are interchangeable (just not numbers correct for '70)

Hmm: I have a set of those too. They're buried though and I won't be finding them until spring.

That's also a driver's side Flatland, I believe he needs a passenger side.
