Front brake caliper
« on: 25 February 2022, 12:24:19 »
Hi

I am sure it is somewhere but, I cann't find the post about front brake calipers.   Passenger side the piston has frozen. Undid the hose and it made no difference, it had still locked the disc. I cann't see the reference number on mine. 

Would these calipers fit my 2002 2.6 Auto saloon?

Thanks in advance for any help.

All V6 front calipers are the same (only pre 97 2.0l ones are different).

Thanks for the reply. The ones that I have found, on EBAY. I cannot buy as there is something wrong with the company, selling them.

Some times they are listed on Euro Car Parts.

Just checked they currently only have the left rear caliper on offer, but maybe worth giving them a ring to see if then can obtain them for you.

Would anyone know, the size and threads of the bleed valves for the LUCAS 2.6 front brakes?  I have got the piston out, and the bore is just dirty so I am going to clean it up. Then get a rebuild kit, with new pistons and seals.

Thanks for any help.

Thanks for that GastronomicKleptomaniac. The piston took ages to come out. The bleed valves are worn, so will replace them.

Andy B.
I am not one of those people, who get upset. When someone says something. I am old school everyone has the right, to ask questions. And answer or correct if they can. I am still learning stuff, after the stroke, so please keep doing what you are doing now.:y
