Hi, yes we have been discussing this.

Still waiting for confirmation about calibers as defender.

If unsure where can I get either second hand ones or piston seal kits ?  

Thanks
Jo

seal kits - have you tried Past Parts in Suffolk?

secondhand calipers - make me an offer I can't refuse!
it seemed like a good idea at the time

here's a shot of the secondhand ones I have - they were supplied new in July 2005, fitted but never driven - they have some minor surface corrosion to bolt heads etc. but as new pads were fitted, the pistons have been in fully retracted position and should be fine

for reference, they are made by AP and the Renault part numbers on invoice are 5430027151 (offside) and 152 (nearside), pads 5430023678

calipers were invoiced at £152 each and pads £39.00, all +VAT - if you could find at same price now, that's £411.60


also have a pair of old rusty calipers for recon if you can find someone to overhaul with new pistons and seals and don't want to remove yours until you have to (although guess you're not driving it at present anyway)
