Re: hydraulic fluid seeps + About break callipers

Hi,

I don't know what 2nd hand callipers for the DeLorean cost in the 
States but over here I can get a 2nd hand calliper of the shelf from 
a breaker for £14.00 (about $21)

Same part number and same part. must be one of the cheapest parts 
you can buy for the DeLorean in the UK.

New $300.00 from vendor, 2nd user with new seals and cleaned pistons 
$30-$40

I know which one I would choose, and have chosen, relining the boars 
for a part of this value seems a bit over the top to me, IMHO

(no disrespect to DMC vendors, there parts are of course brand new 
hence the extra price)

When you disasemble the calipers you will know right away if they

fitting s/s sleeves is way beyond the machining capabilities of most.
