Mini Spares now offers its own Brake Caliper Seal Repair Kit as a cheaper, but comparable, alternative to the genuine Lockheed kit. The kit is suitable for Minis from 1984 on that were equipped with 8.4in discs. There’ll be a few kitcars there, then!

This rebuild kit also fits the Midget/Sprite 1098/1275cc front disc brake calipers.

The kit includes all the large seals needed to rebuild both pistons in one caliper except for the small bridge seal between the two halves (available separately from Mini Spares as part 17H7679, if required).

The package is easy to install with no special tools required. Order as part number GRK5008MS at £4.80 inc VAT.

Alternatively, Mini Spares can supply the genuine Lockheed kit as part number GRK5008.
