Caliper Rebuilding Question!

[Geneman]

Rebuiliding Boxster Calipers (for 911 upgrade) after powder coat etc. All new hard lines and brass fittings ordered from Pelican.

(see pic along with other parts of beauty from Pelican/ERP for a complete front end rebuild winter project!)

Do you use loctite on all these fittings when re-assembling? does it matter if red/blue stuff?

how about on the brass washer for the banjo lines ?

thanks very much

I'm almost certain nothing in this job requires Lock-Tite. (Red requires heat to remove, or blue requires a wrench) Those brass washers are the gaskets and require nothing but proper torquing of the fittings.

No loctite is the correct answer. If you are anal about sealing, you could put a very small dab of Curil-T on the threads, but you don't need it and you don't want to get it in the fluid.
