Alright, I have a caliper repair kit question. I bought a front
caliper rebuild kit (67 BJ8) which has the seals and the rubber boots,
but also two round metal wires. What is the wire for? I did not see
one while disassembling the calipers. Is it to aid in installation of
the boot onto the piston? Do I need this?
I took the advice of the group and bought new SS pistons (from
http://www.jfarrellauto.com). On John's site there are CAD drawings of
the different pistons he makes, and it looked like there were two
designs for Healey pistons? One with a thin groove for the boot and
one with a step down groove for the boot. Perhaps the wire is for the
second one? By the way, the price was good, it came to $102 with
shipping for four SS pistons.
Thanks,
Mark Buggy
