Monaro Brake Caliper Seal Kit

[Yanayaya]

Hey,

So I have finally fitted my new supercharger to my Monaro and after a lot of testing over the past couple of week I decided to take the car out for a long drive to a car show, sadly it wasn't to be as my wheel ended up red hot after the driver side lower piston in the caliper seized. It retracted again on its own allowing me to get home.

I've now stripped the caliper and found the split seal that allowed dirt to get in, I've ordered new seals from RockAuto but, to be honest, there must be seals I can get here in the UK for them? It's the standard Monaro VXR calipers, is there another car that would fit these or a place that can supply kits? Walkinshaw and Vauxhall can't help. It may be the case I just have to wait for my RockAuto stuff but it's really frustrating for such a simple thing.

Corvette C5 should be the same if you have the PBR 330mm brakes on the front.

Do you know of a UK supplier?

I’ve got the Centric seal kit from RockAuto if you are in a hurry.

I'd certainly be interested, how much would you like for it?
