Caliper Replacement Parts

[Haggis]

REPLACEMENT PARTS
1. CALIPER - The Kodiak caliper uses GM replacement friction pads
which should be available at your local auto parts store. Specify pad #D-
289 organic for Model #225 (same pads used for 1980-1990 Buick Skylark-
front) and #MD-215 semi-metallic for Model #250 (same pads used for
1983-1995 Buick Century H/D-front).
2. OTHER ITEMS - The caliper fittings (which are brass for corrosion
resistance), rotor, and caliper mounting brackets are all specially designed
to fit standard trailer hubs and axles. Accordingly, these items are not
standard automotive parts, and may be sourced from your trailer parts
dealer, distributor, or mass merchandiser. Kodiak also offers parts
replacements through its customer service department at 1-800-7KODIAK
or at Kodiak’s e-mail address: kodiak@kodiaktrailer.com.
Note: Calipers, friction pads, and rotors should be purchased and installed in axle
sets (i.e., changing out a caliper, friction pad, or rotor on one side only is not
recommended). All rotors are vented.

Thank you for the information. I'll file your text for future needs. I just checked my brakes and greased the bushings with Silicone Grease.

Do you have any ides what years of Suites these part numbers work on? I'm a little perplexed that current parts on the Suite would be the same as the cars listed, i.e. 1983-95 and 1980 to 90? But appreciate the info for those who need it.

I saw something about lifetime warranty on the Kodiak brakes. Anyone have any idea what parts fall under this warranty?

rvndave,
The posts you are checking into are very old--this one 3 1/2 years. Kodiak is located in Fort Worth, TX. You should call them, I hear they are very helpful to owners of their brakes.
