Front disc brake calipers Delco moraine

I have the left and right original disc brake calipers that say delco moraine on them.

another member has ID d these as OE 71-72 calipers. In addition These should fit any A body 69-76 disc brake application

The calipers appear in good original condition they will need to be rebuilt.

I am asking $55 plus shipping this is my core return charge price.

If no interest i am going to send these in for the core charge.

pics coming soon

Not positive, but upper number could be a Julian date - 54th day of '73.
Lower number(s) am guessing are last three of part #, they are one digit different.

The 5473497/498 are casting part numbers.
The 497/498 are enlarged for easy reference.
They are the correct calipers for all 1971-72 Olds A bodies.
1970 Olds A bodies by the way used the suffix 636/637
If you have a 71 or 72 disc brake car including 442 and W30 these are the calipers you want.

Thks for the help rocketdevo and newmexguy.

the only numbers i found on them are the numbers i posted. So no specific date codes but the casting indicates the original application.

a reference on rockauto suggests these calipers will work for 69-76 disc brake cars.

i still have these and would rather someone who needs them gets them VS sending them in as core units.

If you look at the back of the calipers you will see a number next to the L&R.
I believe that is the julian date.
You will notice that the back side just shows the last 3 digits of the part number.
