Hey all,
Getting ready to put my A type calipers back together. Got a couple of questions. 1) Is this the correct orientation of the dust seal (see seal on right)? 2) Is the retaining ring in the right place and does it matter where the two ends are (blue arrow) and should there be a small (1/8") gap? 3) What is the suggested orientation of the notch in the piston (green circle)? ![]() |

QUOTE How did they finish these from the factory? It was cadnium plated at the factory. Cad is now almost verboden here in the States... especially Kalifornia. Zinc is the proper replacement and it will look almost identical when finished. Keep in mind, the factory finish on those may be 30 years old. Don't plate the pistons. Polish their sides on a wheel and then use a heat paint (as the calipers will get hot etc.) such as POR15 Exhaust Manifold Grey or some of the muffler paints available. |
