Calipers may or may not be good, however, they can usually be bought for less than core charge.

You never, ever want to trust a salvage yard pressure hose like a brake hose.
Well realistically I kinda just want the caliper, the brake hose is like $14 at autozone, like I said, I've bought about 350 in parts already and I'm trying to stay within my budget, without keeping my buddy working on my truck for weeks at a time... I can't help him much because of a recent knee injury, and he doesn't charge me much... He actually broke his nose tonight working on my leaf spring shackle... Which we couldn't get off due to rust...
