Brake calipers & piston seals

Guest

Where's the best place to get new caliper piston seals?
I recently acquired a set of used 944 front calipers on E-Bay as part of a serious brake upgrade for a VW Camper, but the rubber has seen better days. The calipers are Ate steel single pot ones off an '86 944 with a piston inner recess bore of 39mm and outer lip diameter of 54mm. I believe the seal kit part number is 928 351 941 00.
Also, I am looking for a pair of 944 (non turbo) rear discs with the handbrake operated drum brake assembly.
Any advice much appreciated!
Cheers, Alex
 
I got my rebuild kit from Paragon products in the US (but that was when I was In Sweden, so it worked out funny getting stuff from the UK and US....)

However, Bert at Berlyn services probably does something, or if he can't help, Your'e probably looking at going to you OPC. Aparently Adrian at exeter (or something similar) does some good deals. Have a search and you'll find a contact number for him.

As for rear disks, well, Bert again, or Euro car parts (check the thread at the top of the 944 section for discount opportunities)

Yes, I'd try Bert at Berlyn Services first (he is the 944 Register Tech Rep so will know all about them). I'm fairly confident I've seen him post before that he can supply rebuild parts for the ATE calipers.
 
Thanks very much for the rapid response guys!
Don't think I could go through the OPC treatment again, so sorted my requirements through Berlyn's online ordering service. [:)]

A sheep wi writing on its side?!? [:D]
I suppose after a few Islay malts it could well appear like that, but in fact it's just a humble marker stone at the road to Coullabus Farm between Bowmore and Bruichladdich. Kinda liked that name, so a quick photo was called for on our visit in 2003 [8|]
