refurbing rear brake calipers
#19
yeah that's what i did to ours, still got the hydraulics seals. you have manual and know the slide pin torque?

lube the pad slider and the pad ears, but don't get any on the pad friction material and or discs.  if the small pad slider pin is knackered, i used a split pin the correct diameter and cut it short, just long enough to do the job, and splayed the open ends.

resulted in really good handbrake for mot test a few days ago.

red rubber grease is in big red kit from memory.

you know where the handbrake cable adjustment is??
