I need to replace the seals etc on my brake caliper which sadly has seized.

Any idea if these are still available or recommendations of suppliers of parts?

It's a 1999 live axle Vauxhall 1600 with standard brakes


Cheers

Hi hotfuzz
Parts for the front calipers are still available,
It might be easier to fit exchange units ,but you can try a company called Power track Ltd they can supply overhaul kits or ex units

Cheers,

Not sure if I should at least attempt to repair it, although having issues getting the pistons out at the moment.

am I correct in thinking that these calipers are original Triumph Spitfire/Herald items?


Thanks again

Got reconditioned items in the end (Spitfire/Herald) however the brake pipe outlet was in the wrong location but everything else was identical.

In the end I managed to return them and got the same supplier to simply refurb both front calipers which are spot on & very happy with.
