Hey guys, I took my car to a local shop for a brake job. I got all the parts from PMB and I am extremely happy with everything I ordered and received. He said the calipers were "probably good." The shop just called and said the front brakes were difficult but were done perfectly in the end. The rears, not so much. The rear calipers are bad. Now I need calipers FAST as it is taking up a stall at the shop. PMB is closed but from what I can tell they want your old calibers and they will rebuild them but there is a 10 day to week turnaround. Any suggestions?

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) if they're not adjusted properly, they'll start leaking and will need rebuilt - don't ask me how I know (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Once again, I asked and you guys came through. Thanks to everyone especially 913B who found what I needed laying in his garage and is shipping to me. I don't know if everyone knows how nice it is to have a 47 year old car that you know you can get immediate answers to questions and even physical help from you members. I see all the time people volunteering to drive hundreds of miles to help on rebuild or just trouble areas. I live in Southeast Wisconsin were 914's are pretty rare. When I get can people ask if it is a Ferrari. Thanks again to everyone.
Cheers! |
