Funny you should post this mine locked up on the front off side. Only 2 year old calliper.

cheers - full set ordered - £105 for all 4 caliper kits!! The garage is going to shotblast and respray the original calipers for me

Is that including pistons or just seals ?

 

[seaDog]

Seals and ancillaries only no pistons

Doesn't that assist with doing donuts @Lee? lol, JIM

I don't know what your talking about

 

[bertiejaffa]

that price is including pistons and slider bolts - very pleased....

 

[bertiejaffa]

The kits have been fitted to the brakes - very pleased with the results - all 4 brakes refurbed (except for the springs which thanks to southernboy will be done very soon!)

**THREAD UPDATED - Now looking for rear callipers for 2.0l** Condition not important.

After sorting out the brakes on the M, I now need to refurbish the rear callipers on my 2.0l. However for ease I don't want to have the car on stands while they are being done - therefore I am looking for replacement ones that I can refurbish first and then retro fit. The condition isn't important, they could even be seized as I will be refurbishing them.

Alternatively, if anyone has any working spares I can borrow for a couple of weeks while I refurbish my own?

Cheers

Hi Brian - thanks for getting back to me, theres no need to get the camera out though - Andy spurs fan has literally emailed me and come up trumps yet again !!

However, I might need your help shortly... I have been watching your handbrake change with interest as I might do this at the same time depending on their condition

Hi @bertiejaffa , I did a "how to" on handbrake cables last year, it's on here with all you need to know.

Cheers fella, I'll have a look and take it from there. Ideally I'll go the Brian route and change the lot but at the minute my luck on the cars and my bike is beyond ridiculous so if they're ok then they will have to do
