Brake Caliper Rebuild, Help Identifying Part...

[Cml24]

Ok, so it's all pretty straight forward, especially as I'm just redoing the slider bolts and their rubber boots. The actual calipers and pistons are fine.

But, I'm not sure what the small rubber ring is for. Not found one on the old calipers....

If you look at the picture below it's circled in red.

Any one got any ideas?

I got the same item with my Budweg MR2 caliper rebuild kit.

I couldn't figure it out then......still can't.

I'm not being a complete idiot then!

I've rebuilt calipers before, for different vehicles, and not come across something like it.

There's a name for parts like these: they are 'conversation pieces'........

Take the old pins out and clean the grease of them one of them has a ribbed bush that slides on .thats what your bush is

Does this go onto the pins that have a cut out at the bottom?

Hope that makes sense.
