I have an issue with a new caliper I'm fitting to my 1.8. One of the small seals thats on the caliper where the shaft from the caliper bracket on the car slides in tore. I have 2 calipers from an Activa I'm cleaning up at the minute and wanted to have a go at reconning them myself so I'm going to get the full kits for those. But does anyone know can you get just the small seals on their own to fix the smaller caliper? I had a look at the ones on the activa calipers and they seem fairly well put in, but they possibly go in with a small tool or suchlike. I'd rather be able to add this to my list of jobs I can do instead of having to send them off.
Incidentally, does anyone know what price and who does the recon work on calipers?
Cheers
This is the seal I'm on about
I wanted to give it a bit of protection and acctually going out and buying new paint that for the most part wont be seen anyway (it's got Activa alloys on it) was pointless. Although I did toy with the idea of getting a tin made up of the cars paint code.
