Front brake fitting kit

Post by Daytona » Sun Dec 15, 2019 4:19 pm

Is there a source for brembo retaining pins, spring clips and the plates the pads sit on other than TPS/Audi?

The plates the pads slide on that are held on with three screws each aren’t available separately, they are stainless so should clean up, one of mine was damaged and I had to pay £100 for one 😢

I’ll have a look, cheers Quango86.
Saw those on the diagrams James1084 and not available separately 🙄
Did the screws put up much of a fight and did you manage to reuse them?

I ended up getting the calipers refurbed so screws were OK. Just make sure once you fit the brakes you bed them in properly

I used new screws as the old ones needed torx bits driving in to get them out

Don’t suppose you remember the specs of them or where you got them from?
