Weekend project - Brembo overhaul

[Chrisgti6]

Here was this weekend project, I'm just writing a 'how to guide' which will be up later this evening. For now here is some before/afters


Before, lots of chips in the paint and ruined dust seals

After, better paint and new seals

Ignore the budget tyre!!


Keep an eye out for the how to! Comments welcome.

With a compressor and a block of wood. Hopefully my guide should be up at some point, it has more pictures showing how I did it.

Great job on those

Was that using a high compressed air line or some other hand tool?

Im looking at refurbishing a set of Wilwoods.

I have a small (6 litre) compressor. I just used that on low pressure (about 20-30psi moved them no problem).

I've heard it can be done with a foot pump or similar, but i'm not sure how.

Aren't the stickers on one caliper round the wrong way?

 

[Chrisgti6]

I never really checked, but you may well be right! I'll go and have a look,

 

[Chrisgti6]
