I'm pretty sure that the three pot calipers were also used on Jags of the same age, so might be worth trying some Jag specialists if you don't have any luck elsewhere.

I recently bought recon front calipers for my 245 from Brookhouse and was very pleased with the quality of the product as well as the service.

I rebuilt the calipers on my Amazon previously - its not that difficult a job, especially if you've access to compressed air, but I got lazy when it was time to do the 245's.
