Hi Bob,

Confused of Eastbourne here :roll: , having read the original thread, are we talking (and I suspect we are) just the pins, or is this for pins and refurb kits, I want to refurbish all of my brake calipers (fronts and rears) over the winter seals and pins etc - I don't have a problem wih them, it is more a preventative maintenance thing, figuring it will be easier/cheaper to refurb them before they seize-up/leak :mrgreen: .
Being as "you de man" for brakes, can you point me in the right direction for all the bits at the cheapest price - everything is bog standard, except the front discs which are drilled, grooved and vented.

As for the list - I'm in, I just need to know what for and how much :banana:

It was my intention to make this a repeat of last time

e.g. hard anodised sliding pins, pin repair and caliper repair kits + bolts + tools
Cost I will need to check as the exchange rate has changed but will advise, last time it was around the £50.00 mark including delivery.
ammended
As it stands the price will be £70.00 per axle set as the numbers are less and the exchange rate is not as good as it was.

It may be that I can do this with less numbers as I have some other parts I will need to get anodised for the rear brake up grades so three sets may well be possible sooner rather than wait till we have 10 in the list.

I'd like to join this please.

My need is now no longer that urgent as I have found replacement calipers for now. I will recondition the old ones once they are off.

Thanks for the help! :D

Do you have an idea of a cut-off point, I may be interested, I just need to confirm the status of my car, being in Colombia, I will have to get hold of the Garage over skype over the next few days.

Jason,

It's pretty much guaranteed that you'll need these at some point (assuming your keeping the stock rear calipers) grab them now while they're on offer.

Yup, I just took 3 months off in Colombia so everything going out and nothing coming in, also I did just clean up my callipers, but wondering if I can get these to the garage before the MOT or whether to risk the MOT first, I did clean up everything as a temporary stopgap, replaced hoses with braided, re-did in copper pipes, replaced the rear proportioning valves, new pads.......but yes, ok put me down for a set too! The garage knows I am not back until February so they may just keep it until then! =)

As I have just sourced a kit from another LECer who no longer needs it I've taken my name off the list. Blipi's need was more immediate!

Many thanks!

I have a set.

I take it I don't need them as I'm going for Hi Spec upgrade.

If this is true and people are desperate for a set sooner rather than later then mine will be avialable.
