This is an original pair of Bendix 4-piston front disc brake calipers from a 1970 AMC AMX. These calipers are correct for the Bendix 4-piston braking system used across AMC's 1965-1970 lineup (AMX, Javelin, Ambassador, American, Rebel).
Fits: 1970 AMC AMX (also correct for 1965-1970 AMC Ambassador, American, Javelin, Rebel with Bendix 4-piston front disc brakes)
Condition: [Fill in specifics — e.g., "shows surface rust, pistons seized/free" or "good rebuildable cores" — since these calipers are increasingly rare, note whether they're rebuildable cores, a rebuilt/working pair, or sold as-is] See photos.
Why this is a significant find for AMX restorers:
- AMC/AMX parts are genuinely scarce compared to mainstream GM/Ford/Mopar muscle cars — specialty suppliers explicitly note that new caliper cores for this system are no longer being manufactured, meaning original units like these are essential source material for rebuilds
- Specialty AMC parts suppliers only offer caliper rebuilding as a core-return service — you must supply your own original calipers to have them remanufactured, since new cores don't exist
- This makes an original, correct pair like this genuinely valuable — not just as a direct-fit part, but as the actual raw material needed for a professional rebuild

Please review photos closely for exact condition — piston movement/seizure and overall casting condition are the most important details for buyers. Combine shipping available with my other AMC/AMX parts listings.
