Default Do i have SS sleeves caliper

In the process of rebuilding the calipers. Just wondering if I have SS sleeves, when I took them apart it looks like they have the old lip seal. But here is a pic of the calipers.

I can't tell, but if there's no major pits, it doesn't matter. Measure them either way.

If it were me I would take that to AutoZone and use it as a core.

That's what I was thinking. Do they have the correct number stamp on them cause I'm trying to keep it original.

Be sure to check each caliper and not just assume all do. The last one looked to be sleeved. First pics I'm not as sure about but think there might be. But from my own experience you may have a mix of sleeved and unsleeved calipers.

I just went to autozone and got reman calipers, and used these as a core, since I didn't want to waste time and money on a rebuilt kit, got all reman calipers and a new master cyclinder for 300, but thanks anyways for the info.
