I have my stock calipers, brakets, hoses with carbon metallic pads (80% left) and zinc plated cd/slotted rotors in my garage. You can have them for $150 + the actual shipping charge. They are still in great shape. :nice:

(I'll be @ Mason Dixon racing on the 23rd if that's close for you to p/u.)
 
Ernie, All you should need from the junk yard is the calipers, brackets, the banjo bolts, and all associated bolts. While I was at it, I bought a set of stainless brake lines too. It was a noticable improvement. As for the rotor, unless there is something wrong with your stock ones, they will work.
 
I don't think the 99+ are bigger than ours. As far as I know, they are the same size. What you are calling the part that holds the pads, is what I am calling the bracket. The banjo bolts from 99+, and the bolts that hold the bracket to the spindle, and the caliper to the bracket.
