Jimny 1999 offside cliper seized was created by lb2e04x
Hi ,

some information/idea please on sorting a seized front drivers side caliper,
I have taken the guides out and cleaned with no effect.
pushed out the main piston as far as I dare and cleaned and lubricated and push back in. no good

I have now pushed out the main piston and it looks like the main rubber dust seal was split and there was a lot of rust stopping it from retracting.
It is all on the bench in kit form awaiting cleaning now.
Where can I get:
1)A new caliper
2)Second hand caliper
3)Seal kit

everywhere seem out of stock. Carparts4less. Eurocarparts etc...

help!! off the road now :(

thanks

Dave

£116 ouch, second hand then...

A seal kit looks the better option but I don't know what type I have Lucas or Aisin?

how do I tell

second hand one will do though

thanks all

I don't recall them being that expensive I will look. They are "exchange" however so there will be an extra charge until the old one is returned
