    Caliper Rebuilds

    Right gents, My brakes are in serious need of an overhaul so Ive got a big brake kit coming over Xmas, just ordered a set of braided brake hoses, new rear discs and pads and a new rear bias valve.

    The next thing i'm thinking is the calipers might need a re-build because when the car was on the brake test meter there was an imballance on the front...

    I can strip them down, blast and re-plate them but I'm wondering if you can buy new seals for them?

    Re: Caliper Rebuilds

    ashy, do you actually plan on sand blasting the caliper bodies? im just thinking if the blasting may effect the sealing.?

    let us know how you get on with the overhaul of the calipers as ive got a pait that ive stripped down but im unsure weather to blast them or get them chemically cleaned.??
