Caliper refurb!

[flat4hore]

Morning all,

I want to refurb all 4 on my classic Turbo 2000.

Any recommendations on who would do that for me?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Gar,

It's not that hard, I did mine in my old type.r and.im.no Ed China.

You can buy refurb kits from dave at RSR , Godspeed, Scoobyworld, Ebay etc .

If you dont fancy doing it RSR in Ireland would do it, scoobyworld do it or just but the kits and any local mechanic will.do it for you,

The only issue is removing the old pistons if they are seized. I use compressed air and an old brake line hooked up to a quick adapter. Just make sure you put some thing in front of the piston so it doesn't go flying.
Watch a few vids on the subject it is really easy.
One tip. Installing new pistons is a two man job. I have trained the Mrs personally.

Thanks a mill for the advice,

Dave (RSR) will be sorting me out with the kits,

I plan to have them sprayed same colour as the wheels (graphite grey) also.

Seen the vids on youtube, seems fairly straight forward (famous last words )

Good stuff, it's not too hard,

Yeah a great idea to freshen up the paint while they are stripped. Best of luck with it
