Well I finally got round to getting my spare set of front calipers rebuilt and all back together. I striped them down monday and sent them off to be shot blasted and powder coated. I bought 8 new pistons from godspeed and a new seal kit from fleabay (biggred) and done as follows.

 

 

Insert new seal in the chamber

 

 

Then I put the new piston seals onto the new pistons

 

 

 

Then insert the piston into the cailper chamber

 

 

Then put the C clip round the the rubber seal

 

 

of coarse you need to this 4 times then remeber to put the rubber seal that go between the two halfs of the caliper before you bolt them together

 

 

 

Simples!

how much did it cost to get them shot blasted and power coated? i have a very old set that i could possibly get done so i have some decent OEM brakes as spares...

only cost £40 for the pair which i thought was cheap. There masking up was not the best but that might of been down to me not explaning what i meant.

They look nice and tidy mate, good job.

nice job

looking good, Have you chiped it already Doh!!!!!! I bet you will notice a big differance now :cool3:
