Hi All, I need to find a rear left hand caliper 4x4 for vented discs as I have a failed hand brake cam in mine (unless someone thinks there is a fix)

I thought I found a pair on ebay but waste of time seller and no goods.

My hand brake is sticking on on that side

the calipers have all new sliders and seals, it is just that the handbrake will not return...could this just be a weak spring?

 

Probably needs pulling apart and new seal on the mechanism itself.
Has the full caliper been refurbed or just sliders and which seals?

 

Just slider n seals, piston seal etc. I will look at rest, thanks

 

if you have a good quality G clamp and patience you can overhaul them yourself, freeing off the handbrake arm is really easy with the right tools, i've done loads over the years,
wind piston out then push down on cage and spring with clamp and remove circlip then pull out cage then remove a second circlip and threaded adjuster, then withdraw handbrake arm, clean and regrease and refit

Thanks, I will do that

 

I soaked mine in wd40 then tapped em backwards n forwards with hammer till they freed off. It didn't take long, probably an hour with removing/refitting wheel , did have one once that I had to wail with the hammer a few times but it still freed off n I had no trouble with them again after. Simple enough job to do

 

Thanks all
