Got my calipers stripped ready for a clean up, and a coat of paint.

Just when you think it can't get any worse, he teases you with the callipers you're chasing :shock:

Naah, these are the normal 4 pot Trophy calipers, Rybes wants the rarer 6 pot ones  :lol:

Hey rf I hope your pistons are in better condition than the ones I took off mine last night!!! Previous owner told me he'd changed the brake pads - he's obviously squeezed the pistons back in with something big and ugly :?

I'm giving these guys a try as I have the seal kit already and only need pistons (which they sell individually - pattern parts):

I say 'only' need the pistons - the brake pad pin cover screws were missing as was one of the pad springs and I'm going to replace the banjo bolts and washers while I'm at it.

:shock:  

No compromise with brakes :roll:

[TigerTastic]

Hey Sin

I've used pattern pistons previously with no issues but I do take your point  :)

[NeilD]

'kin 'ell how did they manage that!!  :shock:

[TigerTastic]

I'd like to just say 'brute force and ignorance' but I can't do it without f***ing swearing  :D

[rf9rider]

Thankfully, my pistons are in pretty good shape, just gonna give them a polish when i get around to rebuilding the calipers.
Yours look a bit ropey  :shock:

I`ve got a good complete front brake set up to sell shortly if you need them, let me know, or i might have told you already  :lol:

[TigerTastic]

I may be after them if I find he managed to stuff the calipers too when he did that to the pistons! Any idea how much you'd want for them?

A masterful piece of understatement sir!  :lol:

Postman finally delivered all the bits for the front calipers, new pads, seals, red rubber grease and some stainless pad pins.
