tamo3 Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Hi, I'm in the middle of rebuilding 280zx rear disk brake caliper. I got this caliper long time ago, and I forgot to take photos when I disassemble it. Now I try to put it back with comparing with FSM and got some issue. First of all, the shape of spacer looks different.. I don't have any other equivalent shape spacer comes with the caliper. I checked '81, '83 FSM, it also looks same as '82 FSM. Secondary, the ring to the end of the piston, does not fit. It's too small. The rebuild kit comes with 2 rings, but that is for cylinder side. However, the ring for cylinder will good fit for piston... Does anyone experience rebuilding 280zx rear caliper? Thanks, tamo3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewZed Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 1979 and 80 look like they have the star-shaped spacers. But they use a snap ring, not the wire ring you show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
