Purple Tom's Mk4 rear caliper emporium

 

Hi,

 

I've just spent the afternoon making a start on going through all the (many, many) Corrado parts that I have to sell.

 

First on the list is my collection of brake calipers, among which are the mk4 Golf rear calipers offered here. These are the standard calipers fitted to the majority of the mk4 Golf platform vehicles (excluding the 5 and 6 cylinder versions as well as the bigger power 20VT cars) They will fit mk2, 3 and 4 Golfs as well as all Corrados and other VAG cars with solid rear discs.

 

I have examined each caliper and made sure of the following:

 

- Bleed nipple moves freely and seals properly

- Banjo bolt threads intact and clear

- Piston fully retracted with dust seal intact

 

The calipers are all externally sound in generally good condition although they would benefit from a bit of love from a wire brush and some polish if you wanted them to be concours. They are however all ready to bolt on.

 

I have 10 (TEN) sets for sale. Price quoted includes packaging and postage by courier.

 

The majority of carriers that I have are for the mk4 platform vehicles so they will NOT fit your Corrado, however the standard Corrado carriers will work just fine. I will chuck in the mk4 carriers if you want them (please tell me if you do) if not then I'll leave them to keep the packages smaller.

 

Payment is best by either Paypal gift or bank transfer and postage will be regular although not next day unless you're lucky and I'm on a decent shift or you're absolutely desperate in which case I can make a special journey.

 

Cheers

Tom

Hi Tom

 

My 1994 VR6 rear calipers may be "still" seized :(

 

Does your calipers :

1. Fit my car AND the existing pads/discs (226 discs i think)?

2. Does your calipers + carriers fit my existing 226?

 

 

Sorry

Did read your post - but wanted to be absolutely sure!

As i just got new solid read discs and new rear pads...

 

So its £40 for 2 rear calipers + pp?

Yes they will fit your car as it is with the original discs and pads, you'll just need the mk4 conversion hoses as per usual.

 

The price is £48 posted.

Hi Ben,

 

I've got another set to post out tomorrow (earliest opportunity with work commitments) so if we can organise payment etc today then I'll get them on their way to you tomorrow, should be with you on Wednesday or Thursday then!

 

I'll PM you.

 

Cheers

Tom

I'm afraid currently they're just selling in pairs as it's pointless me selling one then having to wait for someone to want the other side. I'd recommend that if you need one, then buy two and sell the other yourself.

 

Bump on this thread, still got a few sets left :-)

 

Thanks

Tom

Hi Tom,

 

Any chance you have any sets left? Also, do they come with the Banjo bolts?

Hi James,

 

I do have a few sets left yep. There are no banjo bolts but as in the initial description all the threads are intact.

 

You'll need mk4 conversion hoses anyway which will come with new banjo hoses.

 

Cheers

Ton
