Gauging interest - ATR front calipers and carriers.

Post by **ek9sid** » Tue Dec 07, 2021 7:49 pm

As above...

Just gauging interest for now on a pair of ATR front twin pot calipers with carriers.

Is there any demand for these now? And do we know what they're going for these days?

I'll grab some photos in the next day or so

There is still demand as I sourced a set earlier this year.

I paid £150 for the calipers and carriers and although perfectly find condition wise I rebuilt the calipers for peace of mind.

I've taken a couple of pictures. I think these would definitely benefit from a rebuild (they've been sat in my garage for over a year).

I'll figure out how to stick the photos up here and get them on.

Thanks for the pics @ek9sid.

On consideration, they need a little more effort to tidy than I can offer at the moment.

I found when i refurbished mine, the lip for the dust seal was corroded and made fitting it very fidly indeed. Without removing the seals/pistons and inspecting, it's a bit of a gamble.

Getting the pistons out was no easy task either, next time I will invest in an internal gripper type tool. This was after putting 10bar of pressure into them. Pistons were replaced naturally, they were coroded and very hard to remove.

Got my bits from here:

Since they are safety critical, probably best to buy pre-refurbished and chop these ones in as the cores. considering the pistons + seals are 32quid , a whole caliper for 100quid seems good value (124 without a core). Spotlessly clean and checked too.

There was another link on here also regarding the pad fitting kit which is hard to get hold of - but luckily they are included in the pictures...

Thanks for your input guys.

Mec - not to worry pal. They have been sat in my garage a while. If there's no more interest, I'll fling them on eBay.

Cheers guys

Just remembered I did a youtube video on removing the pistons to tidy them up. This was after improving the cosmetics. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52Nx8FOT52A might help somebody.
