I am overhauling the calipers on my 84 944 and have been pricing up the brake pad refitting kits i.e. Pins and clips etc. The only kits I can find are about £50 for a set of wheels :shock: Now I know parts can be expensive but that is scandalous. Do any members know where I can get an alternative kit at a reasonable price? Thanks in advance for any pointers.

try calling max at frazerpart i was having trouble even finding a pad fitting kit for my 924 he had them on the shelf and they were about £13 here is the website http://www.frazerpart.com but you will be better calling as the site only lists a small amount of what he sells 0151 66 50 911

Hi all

Has anybody managed to find a supplier for front pad fitting kits, piston seal kits and so on

1987 944 2.5 ATE single piston jobs

As in the original post, £50 plus for a couple of spring clips is a bit eyewatering :shock:

waiting for WPO to get back to me, Frazerpart dont have any, design 911 and porscheshop as expensive as main dealer

thanks

Brian
