Joel,
The hole in the bearing cap is supposed to be there for venting. The shop
manual also notes that they should not be filled with grease to work
correctly.B
I recently had my calipers rebuilt by apple hydraulics. I think it was about $B
113/caliper. Got em in about a week with new pistons and crossover seal.-not
loaded. I was happy with them.

The ride height on the front of my 66 MK1A is too high - car slopes front to
back with stock springs and the CAT rubber insolator which are 5/8" thick.B It
has been suggested to use Mustang II insolators as well as possibly changing
to Rick's 450 pound springs, which if I remember right are 1" shorter.B Any
ideas without changing springs or cutting stock springs as I do not like to
cut any springs?
The front brake dust caps have a small hole in the center - is this correct?
If not source and part number to get new ones - We have taken to NAPA to match
up new ones to no avail.
Is there suppose to be a rubber seal that goes on the 'inner fender where it
meets the wing?B Possibly like the MGB - cannot seem to determine.B Little too
wide a gap for using sealer.B Ideas?
Rebuilt brake calipers or getting yours redone source?B I rebuilt both
calipers with MGB SS pistons and rebuild kit and also put in new split caliper
seals, though I cannot for the life of me find where I got them.B One of the
rebuilt calipers is leaking at the split seal location.
Regards
Joel Martin
