The Gray looks nice Ron . So far that's my favorite. Just a clean stock look.

I did mine with duplicolor cast iron gray and clear engine paint. I guess I'll find out how durable they are. I didn't like the Z06 Red on my Yellow car. http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b1...e/Caliper1.jpg It takes the following tools to remove the calipers: 15mm box wrench (caliper bolts x 2) 13mm box wrench (banjo fitting) 13mm flare wrench (brake hard line to flex line) 3/16 vacuum line cap (to cap the hard line) Channel lock pliers (to remove the frame clip) I completely disassembled the calipers and sand blasted them clean. They were a butt ugly brush on yellow. You fon't need to disassemble if cleaning and painting only. Ron |

Can't bleed the ABS pump without a Tech II. Ask me how I found that out :hide: |
Thanks guys. A vast improvement over the hand painted slopped on wrong yellow they were.
And I heard about the problems with running the ABS dry, so I had the caps at the ready when I took it all apart. Although they hardly dripped at all. But they would have! Here is a photo of what this mess looked like before I started. Didn't get the ugly caliper in the shot though. Everything looks new now! http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b1...Suspension.jpg I'll do a start to finish series in a new post when I'm done. Discovered the hub bearings are dry, so ordered those today. Shoot, wasn't even going to do this, but was waiting on engine parts....so....... Ron |
