    Brun You've got a bitch of a job there mate. If you go second hand ask if the bleed nipple comes out before you buy it, if you are replacing the caliper it's got to be bled somehow!

    gonna have a crack at it in the mornin, if it wont come off then ill have to find the cash for a new one

    im now not sure if its leaking fluid, or if thats the WD40 i sprayed on the nipple before trying to undo it

    If its sheared straight off without turning it shouldnt be leaking

    Also if you whine the piston right in you can try bleeding it useing the hose, not the best method but it does work

    i wouldnt bother with the stud extractors, id be suprised if you get it out

    im pretty sure that stuff on it isnt fluid, its WD40

    but, it does need changing / fixing, i cant leave it like that

    well, REALLY wish i hadnt started now

    got a new caliper today, went to fit it, everything is rusted REALLY badly

    the retaining end plates for the pads are rusted to the carrier in a big way, one of the outer small screws now has my T20 bit snapped inside it, and, the pads need changing aswell, which means the other side is gonna have to be done aswell

    takin it the garage on Monday, let my local mechanic sort it, ive had enough !

    The guy at GSF was well puzzed with them mate. Suggested the only tool he knew of was one of those sockets with pins in so they grip any shape.

    BRUN, £56 for re-conned units from GSF.

    Oh and Jon I need to get you a replacement nut sometime for that caliper and a new 1/2" extension. Just gis a shout when dude. I can pick one up from MachineMart next w/e when I'm there.
