CheshireCat Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 I am looking to buy replacement rear brake calipers. 2007 Caterham S3 1.6k I have read previous threads but links are no longer working and understand the calipers are standard Ford sierra not XR4i version.Please can anyone confirm that these are the correct ones and also the best place to buy them ?http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ford-Sierra-1-8-rear-brake-calipers-plus-slider-brackets-plus-Slider-Bolts-NEW-/281777399138?fits=Model%3ASierra%7CCars+Type%3A1.8&hash=item419b3de562:g:eskAAOSw3ydV1F8Vthank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Area Representative paul richards Posted December 14, 2016 Area Representative Share Posted December 14, 2016 Hi Clive. In recent years there have been problems with rear brake calipers supplied by CC, as they are re-manufactured items and it would seem not very well done. However at the recent CC/L7C forum Simon Lambert advised that they have now found someone who is manufacturing them new. If you buy from CC suggest you make sure they are the "new" ones.Alternatively, you could try Bigg Red. They will supply re-manufactured ones or re-con your own (and make them interesting colours if you want).Personally I'd send my existing ones to Bigg Red for reconditioning.
