Pelican has a nice Tech article about rebuilding rear calipers and they mention the adjuster seals and the fluid channel seals. I see the kit that Pelican sells has the standard pistin boots and seals but it aslo has 4 other smaller unidentified (to me any way) seals. Can anyone tell me if two of these seals are the adjuster seals and two are the fluid seals (for sealing the two caliper halves)? I assume they are but when you assume....well you all know the rest of the saying. Some one give me a little info so I can get htese kits ordered.
Thanks, John (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Thanks Allen. Does anyone know if the adjuster screw seals are also included in the kit?

The ones I had came with all of the seals except the ones for the e-brake actuator IIRC...

Pelican kits come with all the seals, including the caliper 1/2 seals.
1 very small seal for the outer adjuster 1 larger thin seal for the inner adjuster 2 caliper 1/2 seals 2 piston seals 2 piston dust covers 2 duct cover clips (which always need about 1/4" cut off one end.) |

As always... Thanks for the great info!! I ordered thekits and started tearing my spare rear caliper apart so I can rebuild them over the holidays. Can't just lie about doing nothing when you have 13 days off in a row!! Thanks again, John (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) |
