UK Rears Brakes Refurb Kit


Terminator

Recommended Posts

Just pulled the UK rears apart and the kit I have with part number 14130 fits OK thecylinder seals, have the same colur code bars, fit slightly more snugly round the pistons than the old ones but I would expect that from a referb kit the outer dust seals are the same and the their spring retainers are the same. I guess the different part numbers must be related to regional codes.

 

Cost me £26

 

I have just one question, and sensible answers please, with no sexual references, - what do I do with the pink gunk. I presume it is a rubber lubricant for the seals.:p

Ahhhhhh *hit!!!!!!

 

My mistake the part number i quoted was for the front refurb kit. Must actually take in what i'm reading.

 

:rolleyes:

 

As far as i know you should use the pink grease on the surface of the pistons (and any other sliding faces) to allow lubrication. Pretty much as you guessed.

I have completed the refurbishment of my rear brakes. The fitting kit was correct as all the parts fitted perfectly. I have used a high temperature clear lacquer to give them a better, easy clean finish and that has an as new look. I think they look very good almost like the new ones. I will post some pictures when my camera is working again.
