Description
Share on social networks:
Rear Lucas calipers always worked ok-ish after each "fix". But that was never a long term solution. Worked fine for a month, sometimes a year or two. Just a never ending dragging story, uneven pads wear, pads cut at an angle, heat induced accelerated rust of disc and back plate.
Pros: worked ok-ish after fix
Cons: never a long term solution

Oh, All the VWII calipers from 80-84 in the Lucas catalog used the same piston seals, pins and pin slider kits.
Pros: same piston seals, pins
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
I just replaced my rear Lucas calipers with Girlings. Now my ebrake works correctly!
Pros: ebrake works correctly
