anybody know who sells these? The bushing that the caliper pin goes thru? I put on new shoes and pads on both front brakes but noticed that the bushings have basically turned to a gooey gummy consistency and they need to be replaced. thanks..Mark
It maybe time to install rebuilt calipers. They aren't very expensive.

Don't forget the anti-rattle springs that go on the upper, outboard corner of the calipers. (Only on single pin calipers.) Same goes for the ones that go on one end of each brake pad.
Someone probably used the wrong type of grease on your bushings. There should be either no grease used or a specific type of grease that won't turn them to goo.
Check the pins for roughness, and if there's any, get new pins too.
