Title: Left Rear Caliper
Post by: simplydelboy on August 14, 2015, 08:47:52 AM
I need the complete unit for MOT. Checked Betaboyz and currently out of stock so I've emailed Mark. Just in case though, I'm sure it's a long shot, has anyone got a fully working complete unit? It's the 1977 Spyder I need it for. Fantastic car, I've had years of fun with it, but never had a full year free from braking problems. Looking on the forum I do not appear to be alone, but I don't have the equipment, skills or it seems strength to fix this myself so a replacement is needed.

Regards to all
Derek Moore

I'll need to check my spares box. The one I'm thinking of works, but the bleed nipple is seized, so you'd need to use a Betaboyz banjo union with the nipple fitted (I might have one of those too).

Many thanks Neil. Mark has emailed me to say that an exchange unit has now come in and will be refurbished and available in about three weeks. I'll hang on for that if that's ok with you, but thanks for the offer. I didn't think I stood a chance. However I now need a drivers side windscreen wiper arm for the 77 Spyder. Anybody out there able to help?

No problem. Tbh, I'd kept mine for future refurbishment, rather than to use. It would have been Ok for an interim solution only I guess.
