[DeTomaso] Caliper rebuild kits...

Those of you familiar with my Pantera (5533) which is now Steve's, will remember I rebuilt those calipers (all of them) for the 2012 SSCC. There should be no difficulty in getting them apart. Recall I created videos of the rebuilds as well.
The brakes have been driven hard during racing and are probably due to be rebuilt again. I only ran ATE 200 (amber) or Super Blue brake fluid and changed it every year I raced. I don't imagine they will be anywhere near the difficulty I had in getting them apart.
If Steve can find o-rings, it's probably all he'll need.
Steve,
The rear caliper piston must be clocked at 45 degrees for proper assembly and then clocked back to vertical for use. Don't force it or it will break. Didn't I give you a set of spare front calipers? I'd recommend getting full rebuild kits or see if you could do exchanges with Larry so you have a spare set at least for the fronts.
I'll see if I can find the videos.

Thanks....unfortunately we are just testing today. So I need it
today.
I
will overnight some for tomorrow as well (Larry Stock) already found
me....
But the specs I have say 42.85 mm and 33.96 mm pistons. I (Google)
have
found other modern vehicles with the same size pistons. What are the
chances I can piece some o-rings together???

Steven,
Sadly, absolutely not. The Pantera front brake calipers were only
used
on
the Pantera, and the Fiat Dino coupe/Spyder. You won't find those at
Pep
Boys.
Pantera vendors carry them naturally, and can overnight a set to you
so
you
don't have to be on the trailer...in fact many sell reman calipers
which
would be faster to install, and then you could rebuild yours in a
leisurely
manner and have them as spares....

All, we are at PIR testing and sn5533 front calipers are leaking at

will work in the '73 front calipers?
