Those are the six I found. It is ideal for most regular passenger vehicles to use 38 inch hangers. It would be better if you used 8 inch hangers, but that wouldn't be necessary unless you are using calipers that require extra space
Selected User Reviews For 2 Pieces Brake Caliper Hanger Hooks with Red Rubber Tips for Automotive Tool Use (Black)
It was purchased for hanging calipers while making repairs to brakes. As you can see in the purchase photo, these bad boys look like wire coat hangers' little brother. This is definitely not what they are. The hooks on these are fantastic. As if tres leches were the best. This metal beef stick allowed me to hang the calipers with no problem. I received an excellent value for the money I paid. When you purchase it once, you'll have solid lip pullers in your tool chest for the rest of your life.
It came in extremely handy when I wanted to hang the brake The rubber tip on one of the devices came off almost immediately, but I know it can be glued back on again. All in all, they're not useful at all. It seems that the hooks are very durable no bending or flexing was observed. As a recommendation, I would say. As of 12/6/2020 Despite the age, they are still working perfectly. Using these, I was able to hang the brake caliper of my Chevy Silverado 2550 It's a big truck, so the brake caliper should be big as well. It did well when held in place with one of these hooks for over a day. There is no doubt that they are of.
When I used zip ties to hold up the calipers in the past, I would attach them to the calipers with zip ties. This is exactly how they are intended to work. Sadly, some of these do not work with rear brake calipers since those have a much smaller hole than in the front. I believe that these would be an excellent design if the two sizes were on opposite ends. That said, calipers are usually heavier in the front and are seldom hung on the rear.
The hangers themselves are durable, don't bend easily, and hold brake calipers securely with no worries of them falling off. The hooks are narrow, and I would have preferred them to be more robust so that they would have more options for hanging onto control arms or coil springs, but it worked fine. I can bend them into the shape I like.
Such an easy design, I don't know why it took so long to develop. It is a must have, I use it frequently to fix brakes in my vehicle as well as my wife's and for other family members. Don't make a hanger for your caliper and hope it holds. Buy these, they are sturdy, durable and cheap.
The vendor is a reliable seller. I would purchase from him.
While changing a wheel hub, we used one to hang the caliper. There is little chance that it will bend due to its solid construction. While using them, you won't accidentally poke a hose since the rubber ends protect you from that. A quality product at an affordable price.
The brake caliper is kept up and out of the way when using this. For HD trucks, you'll need a stronger hanger if you're trying to hold a caliper from the truck. This hanger is perfect for 1/2 ton trucks and vehicles alike. Those are just my thoughts.
