Hi I have had to purchase a second hand brake caliper for the front off side (Drivers side on the right in the uk) does any one have any tips for the fitting it does look quite straight forward but I am a little unsure if there is a bleeding proceedure for the fluid any help is greatly apreciated many thanks Mark
You'll certainly need to bleed the brakes when you've fitted it.
Make a careful note of how that 'orrible bit of springy wire fits on the outside, so you can put it back in the same way (it's a right sod to get it to spring into position!). Also note that you'll need a 7mm Allen key (or male hex socket tool) to undo the pins (behind a rubber/plastic cover) which hold the calliper in place. 7mm is a non-standard size, and most sets of Allen keys don't have one!
The whole process is described in more detail in Haynes manual No. 3573.
