yeah, as std they r threadlocked on, so wen u replace the calipers just put sum threadlock on. If u dont it doesnt really matter, as long as u tighten them up well, ive never heard of them comming lose

im a mechanic and they will be fine dont worry

he doesnt meen second hand calipers. he meens the bolts, ive still got my origanal ones, and they are fine. got my second set of 2nd hand calipers in my garage, have sport ones, and got turbo ones.

so wudnt recomend getting second hand calapers? Why not?is it really too dodge?

If you've not done it already, technically you need new brake Caliper to swivel hub bolts. The bond/seal is broken when they are undone thus making them weaker when done up again.
I wouldnt risk the cheap option with something as serious as your brakes and they only cost a few quid from vauxhall

Did you end up fitting em?

i think that was dear wot u paid as i got a set with disks/calipers etc for 40 quid :D

Fantastic well sounds like i got me self a job this afternoon.

WAS £70
ok price ??

THANKS AGAIN PHIL

:D

no, i used a small clamp.

Did you use a proper hose clamp?

its the same as changing the front discs and pads, except u just blcok off the brake line change the caliper over then bleed it all.

Just on my first step towards the 2.0ltr transplant.
The front breaks cost £70 which i think was ok??
Just want to know how to fit them and if they are easy to do?
Iknow how to change the front disc and pads but thats about it?
Thanks for any help
Phil:thumbs:
