I am in the process of replacing my rear brake calipers and I need a bit of help figuring out what new ones to buy. The car is a 1989 Volvo 740 Turbo with ABS on all four wheels.
The rear calipers I have currently are marked with the number 45. Does that mean they have 45mm pistons? If so, I can't find any others marked 45mm for sale online!
Anyway, I am changing both the calipers so does it matter if I end up putting calipers with bigger/smaller pistons as long as they are equivalent on both sides?
Also, I am looking to buy this brake pad/ rotor set: https://www.ebay.com/itm/For-Volvo-...rentrq:23d7d89816e0aa6695d8b89cfffbc92c|iid:1. Will this set work with other piston size rear calipers? I know the front brakes are a match for sure.
Lastly, in which order should I change/ bleed the brakes lines? I am replacing the rubber hoses so they all have to be bled. This is a photo of the caliper I have now:
