Up Date
Had a slight hiccup with the boot kits which has now hopefully been resolved
Rock Auto’s had a problem with the supply of the ones I had ordered but they have now sorted this and they expect to ship them today (Thursday 10th July)
I expect they will take 4/5 days to get to me if the caliper kits are any thing to go by s I expect the kits to ready to ship to you guys middle of next week
Every thing else is here ready to go just waiting on the boots

Some of you have paid (Thank you) some have not and some have yet to send me details like address.
The people that have paid I will send the kits off as soon as I get the boot kits.

All the bits are now here

As you can see you get 4 pins, 4 boots, 4 bolts, grease and two caliper repair kits.
The tool shown on one of the pins is for fitting the pins, this enables the pins to slide cleanly through but you still need to follow the instructions as per the service manual but add the tool to the end.

The other tool (sitting on top of a used piston with locator ring fitted) is for fitting the piston locator on to the piston and no you do not get the piston!
Without the tool its next to impossible to get on once off without damaging it.

I will endeavour to include the tools with all kits but where two of you live close i will probably only supply one between you.

If any one is stuck let me know
I will get some of the kits sent off tomorrow (those that have paid) if any one requires their's urgently let me know (Monty will be the first as his MOT is due)
The others that have paid I will send off Thursday as I need some small boxes to package them in

Got mine today thanks.

Mine came with the small tool but not the large one that sits on top of the piston.

Does this mean you have sent one to somebody who lives near me?

I'm not in a great hurry as my brakes are working fine. I only bought kit to keep till its required.

Cheers

Just to say I have now rebuilt my calipers and the kit is perfect. The tools that Bob made ensure that the job is as smooth as possible :wink:

The alloy sliders work exceptionally well (my old ones were fairly manky).

Thanks again Bob for this great kit. :smt023

Cheers

I haven't fitted mine yet, but I'd just like to echo Blacknight's sentiment about it being a real quality kit and how grateful I am to have been included in the group buy. Thanks. :-D
