    There's a pin underneath holding them in. They maybe tght and need to be pressed out. I never removed one, but I did have one that was well loose. I could tell it wants to rotate and slide, but I saw that little rolled up metal pin move when I moved the big pin, so I think it's holding it in.

      I've been putting off starting this thread for a long time, and each time I work on the car I wish I had a place to drop updates. I'll start off here and fill in the details as I go along. Background: I grew up working at my father's indy BMW/Mini shop, owned many BMWs, several Porsches and one 50 year old jag that's now

        Guys I need some help, I've looked back through these posts to 2022 and can't find the posts talking about rebuilding these calipers. I could have sworn I had seen them but now I can't find them.

        I've now run them for 4 track events and have decided I really like this setup. I do need to get them powder coated and while I have them off I'd like to install new seals and hardware. Also, are there any upgrades other than the dust boot upgrades?

        Any help would be appreciated

          I got the FREN Kit from Ohio Performance Solutions. The kit is great. I got the whole rebuild for all 4 calipers, I decided NOT to get the calipers powdercoated because it will have to be redone again in the future so I ended up getting it ENP to look like the Essex kit on a budget lol.
