Default Which Autozone Caliper?

So, I've been reading that autozone calipers are the hot ticket for replacing mine. I go to the autozone website and I see couple of choices...my question is: do I have to buy the fully loaded ones for the SS sleeved units? Anybody know?

If yours are sleeved they are very easy to rebuilt with the o ring kit which will last longer then the lip seals. If you decide to buy rebuilts get the o ring remanufactured.

Loaded just means it comes with brake pads and hardware. So if you're planning on usuing a certain set of brake pads, you wouldn't use those.

The O-ringed calipers, stainless steel sleeved are 82.80 on our site and the standard stainless steel sleeved calipers are 70.00 each. (plus core)

Kits are also available with pads, pins hoses etc...
