\nFront and rear caliper OH, rear master OH, and brake hose fabrication.
\nAnodized calipers from this era! Very high quality.<\/p>\n

How quickly and cleanly you can handle this kind of work is very important.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\" \"\"\"\"
\nWell, it was quite a challenging situation.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nReally free-form design. Drill wherever you like! That’s the spirit.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nThis one is 14\u03c6. It might be surprisingly useful information.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nGreat that the piston and cup set came out\u2014I think they’re getting pretty hard to find now.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nSince it’s brake work, inspection is important\u2014even calipers will do.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\" \"\"
\nWhen you can polish, the finish is completely different. Smooth, moves well, and resists corrosion.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nI polished the rods and reused them with a gun coat. Now they’re restored.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\" \"\"
\nAnodized calipers are really excellent. The oil seal grooves barely corrode.
\nStripping the anodize with shot blasting is such a waste that I can’t really recommend it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"
\nThe pistons are clean, so I’ll reuse them.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"
\nI usually wash this area with a high-pressure washer in the box. It cleans up right away, which is great.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nI apply CCI metal rubber,<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nAlways inspect the oil seals and dust seals.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nI went with sintered metal brake pads. Lately, even single-piston calipers wear pads pretty fast, so don’t underestimate them.<\/p>\n
