F1 Caliper welding, answers needed.

<< < (2/2)

Spitfire:
Good luck with the caliper, it did take me two years to get one on eBay, now I have 4 saved searches which tell me if anything new comes up.

Cheers

Yoshi823:
It is normally the bleed nipple which shears off that causes the problems with these calipers.So there are probably a fair few old ones lurking about somewhere.

Pistons are easily sourced...stainless steel ones are recommended.I heard of someone who makes these to a drawing or from the original. I'll see if I can find the number/email address as he also renovates old and new calipers.

SteveD CB500K0:
There's a guy on sohc4.net who makes phenolic pistons (he turns them down from automotive parts). They come highly recommended by our US cousins.

Spitfire:
There is a caliper on eBay at the moment, well there was 2 days ago (todays Friday)
