samurai Posted November 7, 2006 Report Posted November 7, 2006 Anyone know where i can get the brake pins to hold the brake pads in the 2.8i capri capliers? Thanks
capriclive Posted November 7, 2006 Report Posted November 7, 2006 all good motor factors still do them.
negri Posted November 7, 2006 Report Posted November 7, 2006 what type ? the anti rattle or the actual thicker metal bars that hold the pads in ? im sure my local motor factors do a kit , best try them
samurai Posted November 7, 2006 Author Report Posted November 7, 2006 Emm im guessing here as i dont have any at all! Just the pins that hold the pads in the caplier with maybe a little clip to hold the bars in the caplier to Thanks
Mark2Mark Posted November 7, 2006 Report Posted November 7, 2006 Yeah you just want a brake pad fitting kit that will have everything you need
samurai Posted November 7, 2006 Author Report Posted November 7, 2006 Thanks I have 1 question to that i needs to be cleared! Do the 2.8i capliers and sturt need a spacer plate between the strut and caplier so the disc is in the middle of the capiler? thanks
tim Posted November 7, 2006 Report Posted November 7, 2006 nar u need a spacer for the caliper for 2.8 vented disc;s
Mark2Mark Posted November 7, 2006 Report Posted November 7, 2006 Yeah i think they do unless you are using 2.8 struts. Most of the places in classic/retro ford sell them or you could make some, sorry i don't know the dimensions
samurai Posted November 7, 2006 Author Report Posted November 7, 2006 Trying to get a pair is these is a right pain! The struts and capliers are 2.8i Thanks
emu Posted November 7, 2006 Report Posted November 7, 2006 Thanks I have 1 question to that i needs to be cleared! Do the 2.8i capliers and sturt need a spacer plate between the strut and caplier so the disc is in the middle of the capiler? thanks My calipers have some thick washers between the caliper and its mounting face, both strut and caliper are off a 2.8. I dont know if thats the norm though or if mine have been bodged at some time!? Any old washers that are the right size would do I imagine.
samurai Posted November 7, 2006 Author Report Posted November 7, 2006 If i can use the right spacer i will cant be assed to play around with washers but if i cant come up with them soon ill just use some washers because i wanna start my car tomor but cant drive it because no brakes!
