Cat2017 Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Evening allI am looking to service the front (disc) and rear (hub) brake callipers/ pistons on a 1992 GTS live axle. Would anyone be able to advise on what make and where I can get the required service kit please?Also, if anyone has the details for all the suspension bushes, that would be gratefuly received. Caterham out of stock and several weeks lead in.Many thanks Neal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkeywood Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Hopefully Chris will be able to help with the bushes and brake bits you'll need. Presumably you'll need the nuts, bolt and washers as well.The front calipers are Girling type 14 as used on the Spitfire - I've used Rimmer Bros in the pasthttps://rimmerbros.com/Item--i-GRID005768Rears, assuming it's Ital, are BL parts bin - Again Rimmers, or Ang, can helphttps://www.angclassiccarparts.co.uk/products/austin-morris-bmc/morris-marina-ital-allegro-maxi/brakes?qfs=1&p=1The wheel cylinders are the same as the Spit and originally would probably have been 5/8" but common to change to the 3/4" (GWC1208). I'd normally get the shoes relined rather than buy new Here's the Caterham suspension lists if it helps F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat2017 Posted February 19, 2022 Author Share Posted February 19, 2022 Thank you both for your responses - I'll follow these up. The suspension details and Web links much appreciated rkeywood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkeywood Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Hi Neal,No worries, try Chris first - he's the goto one stop shop for everything on older cars. To add to the above, if there's any problems with the bushes then it's only the shortened 636 and 2030 that are Caterham specific, the others are parts bin that can be sourced elsewhere if needed. Just looking at the Caterham lists from the Guide (without my head on it's side, thanks JK) I think they have the centre A frame bushes wrong - they're a pair of Y16. Also, if you have the additional top link and alternative roll bar fitted then you'll need an extra bush for the link that doesn't appear on the list - IIRC its a 2030 unmodified but Chris will put you right.Spalding Fasterners and Kayfast are good fallbacks for bolts etc.Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
