Uberderv 6 Posted August 9, 2009 Hi, I have been refurbing a set of 266mm calipers for my 1.8Dt and wanted to replace the rubber parts (including the main piston seal). I know Bigred on Ebay sell them but are there any other suppliers? Also the slide pins have a rubber section, I was wondering what this is actually for?

MerlinGTI 3 Posted August 9, 2009 Slide pin rubber is to dampen vibration and stop rattling, if they are the same setup as 1.9 calipers only 1 slide pin per side will have the rubber section. Big red are brilliant, they have a propper website too if it's just the eBay aspect that's putting you off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uberderv 6 Posted August 10, 2009 Hi MerlinGTI, Cheers for the reply, the slides only have it on one side like you say. I dont mind buying stuff off Ebay, I had just emailed Bigred before and they didnt bother replying which I didnt like. Will try again as I have looked through a Peugeot parts CD and they sell the seals and dust cover but not the slide rubber Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MerlinGTI 3 Posted August 10, 2009 If you buy a 'caliper rebuild kit' from big red you do not get any slide pin/bolt/what ever rubbers. He might sell them seperately mind, best bet is to get on the blower to him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welshpug 1,645 Posted August 10, 2009 the rubber boots come with the slider pins, as mentioned, usually a separate kit wherever you get them from Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
