Title: KJ Rear Brake Calipers
Post by: Mel B on April 14, 2009, 05:11:22 PM
I have done a search relating to me KJ's rear brake calipers, no luck.

The problem is nearside caliper is sticking on, had problems year before with the offside one....cost me over 500 sov's at the stealership to sort it out, (yea lotta booze tokens there)(even fooked up the familys holiday) gonna do it meself now, had a look at the pads, well and truley cooked off, white ash around the edges.
Now where is the best place to get replacement calipers, had a look through jeepchryslerparts, pads&discs but no calipers, i think i'll get away with the discs, engineering firm down the road, i'll get them to skim them, any ideas or links will do.....used to be a "mechanic" years ago when we used to strip starter motors and generators and rebuild them for Moggie thou's and Minis, how times and labour costs have changed.......

Cheers...Mel B(ishop)
