Front and rear caliper OH, rear master OH, and brake hose fabrication.
Anodized calipers from this era! Very high quality.
How quickly and cleanly you can handle this kind of work is very important.
Well, it was quite a challenging situation.
Really free-form design. Drill wherever you like! That’s the spirit.
This one is 14φ. It might be surprisingly useful information.
Great that the piston and cup set came out—I think they’re getting pretty hard to find now.
Since it’s brake work, inspection is important—even calipers will do.
When you can polish, the finish is completely different. Smooth, moves well, and resists corrosion.
I polished the rods and reused them with a gun coat. Now they’re restored.
Anodized calipers are really excellent. The oil seal grooves barely corrode.
Stripping the anodize with shot blasting is such a waste that I can’t really recommend it.
The pistons are clean, so I’ll reuse them.
I usually wash this area with a high-pressure washer in the box. It cleans up right away, which is great.
I apply CCI metal rubber,
Always inspect the oil seals and dust seals.
I went with sintered metal brake pads. Lately, even single-piston calipers wear pads pretty fast, so don’t underestimate them.
