badgerspitfire Posted April 19, 2021 Report Posted April 19, 2021 I bought a set of Mk14 calipers for my Spitfire 1500 last summer. I then got the problem (discussed in forum) about long pedal travel - something to do with a design flaw with the seal. Not wishing (or having the expertise) to dismantle the calipers, I sent my original calipers to be reconditioned via our TTSC shop (and very happy with the new calipers!). So I now have 2x Mk14 calipers ready for a new home. The LH caliper (from Rimmers) works fine (I changed them out one at a time to check). The RH caliper (from James Paddock) is the one with the seal issue. They have done about 40 miles total! If anyone is interested in them please let me know. If I'm not allowed to post this, then moderators please accept my apologies.
Rabbit Posted April 25, 2021 Report Posted April 25, 2021 I am a tad mystified by your letter. If from the club they would be left and right from same supplier, not one from Rimmers and one from J Paddock. Or are we talking about 2 different sets of calipers. I have had several sets reconditioned via TSSC and have always been happy with the results, including one set of 4 pots from Princess.
badgerspitfire Posted April 25, 2021 Author Report Posted April 25, 2021 two different sets. The ones I have on offer I bought from Rimmers and Paddocks. The ones I currently have on the car where refurbished by the club. Hope that clears it up.
Rabbit Posted April 26, 2021 Report Posted April 26, 2021 Probably my misunderstanding! At least you were happy with Club service.
