[TR] 1976 TR6 front caliper

[DAVID MASSEY]

 What Bob says is true, the caliper bodies themselves are reusable, all you need are new pistons and seals.  However, there are two versions in the TR6 line so make sure you get the right ones.  The 76 will definitely use the later style.

  Dave, I had a 3 caliper seize a number of years ago and all I had to do was replace the pistons with SS, new seals and clean the bore with 1000 sand paper. Here it is over 20 years later and it is working fine.

 Happy Memorial Day weekend and thanks to my fellow veterans.  The right front caliper on my TR6 has seized and I need to replace it.  I will probably order from Moss, but since they are closed for the holiday, I cannot call them to verify that their calipers include the piston (semi-loaded).  Does anyone know for certain?  I want to get it ordered but don't want to get an unloaded caliper and have to wait for a puck.  If anyone has had good luck with a better source, I would appreciate a response regarding that as well.  Thanks for your help.   David Gill 1976 TR6
