L19MUD Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 I am struggling to find the right pistons and seals for my front callipers, per Microcat the callipers should be 46mm and that is what I ordered but it transpires that the pistons are 40mm. Interestingly I known my other 1993 200tdi 90 does have 46mm pistons Is there a changeover at the end of the 200tdi production? Microcat states the part number for the 46mm are from LA930456 and my chassis number is over a thousand past that @western did the spacers you sent me come from 40 or 46mm callipers? The holes for the bolts and the seals all seem to line up OK but have not offered up to the axle yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 110 always had 46mm pistons, 90's used to have 41mm but changed in 1991 to standarise the pistons to 46mm, Those spacers cam from 46mm piston 110 vented calipers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L19MUD Posted January 6, 2022 Author Share Posted January 6, 2022 Excellent....so my 110 has been retrofitted with early 90 41mm callipers then as a downgrade. I should have just bought the entire callipers from you.... What is especially pleasing is that I have spent hours cleaning them up and shot blasting them Thanks Ralph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Oh thats a pain, all the work to f8nd they are wrong. They caliper bodies are still here with good seals & pistons in (not stainless steel) might be a bit expensive to post though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
