Just make sure they have steel slides.
Some of the alloy calipers are crap.
I have taken a few sets to get rebuilt and the Brake Specialists recommend ALL STEEL Calipers. I was a bit surprised as i thought that alloy would have been a lot better and

The ones Adam is referring to are all cast iron PBR. HJ are also all iron, but are Girlock. I like the HZ alloy/iron Girlock aka A9X.
