Title: Re: Brakes Post by: craiga on May 10, 2004, 05:12:43 AM Frogman,
Rare Spares have slave cylinders - about $90.00 per corner. You can get resleeved stainless ones from them for about $55.00 a corner, but other companies can provide this service for prices lower than this. Many times you can just kit the cylinders, which is cheaper, so long as your cylinders aren't badly pitted. I have had success with 1200 wet and dry and with a light hone on a drill. Other guys might be able to supply more info. With the original brakes you really need to replace the brake fluid every 12 months, more often if you are keen. Good Luck, Craig.

I guess you could call other brake places, they may do stainless too. I've been getting my brake stuff done at a place in Gawler, Aus Brake and Undercar behind Sprint Auto, Good workmanship and prices. |
