I was going to buy a fresh set from RTM, however I spoke to Ziggy and he said he's out of stock and they're hard to come across rebuilt. So I am wondering if anybody has a set of clean, working (aka not seized) rear calipers for a 1G AWD.

They don't have to come loaded or anything, I'm just looking for the calipers in working order.

Thanks.

Thanks Alex. The set that came on the car I could use as cores, but they're seized nice and tight as you can imagine

I didn't realize how bad mine were till I took them off, the passenger side had one bad where half was about halfway through the bad and the other half was touching the metal part.

Sounds more like a seizing pin than piston.

yeah it probably was, when I got there the boots were totally ripped off. Although everything was still moving pretty well, which was surprising.

If it was the outboard pad that was almost metal then I agree.

Not sure if Ziggy told you but we have a set of these calipers set aside for you. Ziggy made a mistake about us not having these in stock. We do.
