  • 1 problem solved and then another!!

    so i sloved the scraping noise it was the ware indicators on the pads! there was still a fair bit of pad remaining but they were just catching!! so nr side done all ok, then came to offside and one of the pistons on the caliper has seized, will not budge at all is it a case of a new caliper or can they be refurbed?? as a second note one of the rubber bladder things has a hole in it will this cause problems later with mud getting in etc??

      Ross, someone on here posted a link to a supplier that provided him with a refurb kit, I just can't remember who it was but it was in the early part of this year.

      Yes the hole in the gaiter will be a problem as this will let rubbish in and will eventually cause the piston to seize up.

      Might be better off just picking up replacement caliper in the long run

        The minute Albannach leaves the room, you are all faffing around with brakes, trying to pawn off dodgy second hand bits, advising people to refurbish. It will all end in tears you know.
