Hi, maybe a stupid question but I have a set of rebuilt calipers from PMB and they look excellent. Before I do the rebuild, do I need to include the clips from the old calipers. I guess not for the clip that attaches to the face of the piston as recon piston had a hard rubber seal and I can't see how they would fit but do the brake pads need the square backing clips? The pads are Porterfield R4-s.
Thanks. |

You need the triangle shaped clips to orient the brake caliper pistons.
