Rear Calipers, Need Help
« on: March 04, 2016, 06:37:31 pm »
I was having new discs & pads fitted all round today.

Both rear calipers were seized so I ordered some from my local motor factors, When they were delivered they were different to what was on my car already.
Basically where the bolts go through the caliper to the carrier on my old calipers were wider than on the replacement ones they sent.

Any one have 2 rear calipers close to Manchester that they want to sell as I need my car back on the road ASAP & our garage needs the ramp space.

The rears definitely have 2 different styles of pads, so maybe calipers as well
