Brake rebuild
I am about to rebuild the rear calipers and install new pads and rotors on my 88 Carrera, hopefully with onsite guidance from another Pelican member and generous friend(Rod Walter). The outboard right rear caliper has a stuck piston. If that piston is damaged, is it possible to buy new pistons alone, or will I have to get a new or rebuilt caliper? The usual sources I consult do not seem to offer caliper pistons alone, just rebuild kits (rubber boot and O ring) or the entire caliper.

I just recently rebuilt all of my calipers with seal kits from Pelican and stainless steel pistons I bought from Stoddard. I think the pistons were something in the $30 each range depending on whether it was a front or rear piston.
Very pleased with the results. Chris Bunker 78 SC |
