Front calipers for late valver.

[G60radoboi 10]

My N/S/F caliper has ceased up. Got home to a funny smell and upon closer inspection came across the front caliper almost on fire as there was so much smoke coming off it. Parked the car up now and it aint going nowhere till I can sort it, will just do both so if anyone has a set IN GOOD WORKING CONDITION I would really appreciate it.

can still buy new from euro carparts think about £65 each with your old ones as exchange

[G60radoboi 10]

Will the discs and calipers from a '91 1.8 16v fit?

[clumpy1 11]

I have a set mate very good condition you can have the 280mm disc's and pad's as well for £90 plus postage

Sounds great mate. What will postage be and can I paypal you the cash? I assume the discs are 4x100?

[clumpy1 11]

The discs are 5x100 so no use to you mate but for the caliper's, carrier's and pad's the postage is coming in at £16 with parcelforce so £105 pm me if your interested

[G60radoboi 10]

Thanks mate. Let me check with euros tomorrow first as I am sure I can get the calipers much cheaper than that. I do get traders prices so reckon I should see around the £40.00 mark a caliper.

[clumpy1 11]

Let us know how you get on i'm sure we can do a deal.

Hello G60radoboi,

 

you can also purchase the caliper seal repair kit for £10.00 or £15.00 off Ebay,

so as long as the piston isn't too rusty and pitted,

you could just replace the inner seal and outer dust seal boot, and clean the piston and regrease,

which would be good as new then.

 

Si :thumbleft:

Can you stick up a linky for these please. Can't seem to find them :-(

[vw rule 19]

Hello mate have a look at this item number 281090040195 on Ebay,

the cost of the caliper seal kit is £22.90 with free delivery. this kit fits G60 calipers from 1989 to 1993

 

Or there is a new N/S/F standard brake caliper on Ebay, look at item number 390569254196

cost is £45.80 with free carriage. But I think this one fits the G60 from 1989 to 1991 ?

So if you have a later G60 it may not fit ?

 

 

Hope this helps

Nowt against you trying to help out a fellow forum member but get it right mate if you had read radoboi's post properly you would see he has a valver. Anyway Euro car part's price is £90 or £75 exchange per caliper the one's i have are as good as new very little use (Lucas one's) if your interested radoboi PM me and we will sort something out but i am not giving them away.

Oh yeah sorry dude I was looking at his user name G60radoboi,

so presumed he had a G60. I stand corrected :salute:

 

Think my eye sight is going :lol:

 

The caliper seal kit is 100% for all the Corrado versions.

[clumpy1 11]
