Disc Brake Caliper Rebuilders

Looking for a reputable caliper restorer to do my '67 4-4-2 4-piston calipers.
Would like to have stainless steel sleeves installed.
Have spoken with a few:
Quality Rebuilders-Patterson, NJ, Good prices, seems a little "shaky".

Gold Line Brakes-seem professional, but price is real high.

Phoenix Caliper Company-Chicago, Illinois, seem professional and
price is reasonable.

Of the ones I've checked, Phoenix looks like the best route.
Anyone have any experience(s) with any of the above or
have others they've used and liked, or didnt like?

Thanks in advance for any input.

I talked to Muskegon Brakes about doing my original 67 calipers. I have seen their advertisments and products for years. They will stainless sleeve them, cant remember the cost but i think it was around $200 each. Been too long since I talked to them. You can look them up, see what you think.

Over the weekend I saw an online article about re-lining on Hemming's. They listed several shops, one of them was White Post. It might be worth looking for that article. Sorry, but I don't have a link for you.
