GIRLING BRAKE CALIPER SEAL KIT!!!

Post by Grifter »

Hello my knowledgeable friends,

I need to locate a seal kit for my Girling Brake calipers of my early 81 van, Problem is nobody seems to do them, i cant believe this is the case so i'm turning to you for help. Please can somebody tell me where i can get a seal kit. I notice Brickwerks do a refurbed kit so they must have access to them but as there phone is on permanant f*@k off mode i cant ask them. I would be grateful of any help. Cheers,

Rick.

Thems the one's I bought...later calipers are a sliding design.

From memory I'm pretty sure JK told me this kit fits both the Teves and the Girling calipers - best buzz/email them and check though :wink:

Also you might try Brakes International, though their stuff is a bit variable in quality. They do have some genuine quality Girling (or whoever took them over) seals, but their own brand Budweg is a bit iffy.
