Matt _Aero top_ Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Hi folks i recently changed my pads on the car and upon taking the caliper of i noticed my sliders was more or less seized . i cleaned them up best i could and re greased them but on the sliders there is the little rubber kinda seal on the tip that sits in the recess and i just couldn't get it back in , it was as if it was too big and baggy it just pushed up the slider . i made some make shift ones to get me by out of some small "O" rings , but can these be bought from Mr T or is it best just to buy new sliders complete . Thanks Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 They are just anti rattle rings, you can run without them, and I find they are less likely to seize given a bit more freedom to move around. C/V joint grease is king for these things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt _Aero top_ Posted January 31, 2011 Author Share Posted January 31, 2011 i couldn't get the exact price for my j-spec calipers as he wanted my chassis number off the car which i didn't have to hand so he just quoted me for UK spec ones which he said would be the same more or less . the price he gave me was for part number 47769 and was £3.92 each Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
