    Ap racing brakes. Refurb

    Time has come to sort my brakes out. First up new discs front and back . Where is the best value to get new discs at the moment ?
    Also I have the callipers off the car and I plan to have them powder coated. What prep should I do before hand i.e. Replacing the seals before or after? And how should I clean the callipers before powder coating them can they be dipped in the acid that's used for cleaning up wheels ?

                    Anyone changed their own seals and dust boots on their brakes just watched a really good vid on YouTube showing how to do it looks straight forward enough.
                    Speedys garage how to rebuild brake calipers is where you will find it .

                      I have, just used a bike pump and a bit of wood to blow the pistons out. It's a doddle really, painted mine with some high temp paint :beer:

                        Waste of money Jim. You drive like a fanny so wax crayon would suffice.
