I had an OEM Caliper seize on my coach about a year ago and am just now addressing it. Thanks to Ken Burton's assistance over the phone, I was able to get back rolling and make it home.

I'm looking to upgrade the calipers to 80 mm ones and beyond the little tab that needs to be ground down on the caliper, I can not get the new calipers to fit on my wallace hubs, and then thought perhaps wallace hubs are physically different. Do any of you more familiar with them know if they are a different hub all together? I guess it could be I have incompatable 80mm calipers, though when I bought them (yes a year ago) they cross referenced with known, adaptable calipers.

Thanks,
Rick
