 Ami Super Brake Calliper Seals?
Any one know where I can find some?
They are different, apparently, EPDM rather than the usual type to take LHM...

LHM type, same as GS, surely? http://www.franzoesische-klassiker-shop ... ducts/6043Little Louis wrote: Any one know where I can find some?

 Re: Ami Super Brake Calliper Seals?
Hmmm Brake Engineering seemed to think they were EPDM, which I was skeptical about but they didn't have any in so probably are LHM.

 Re: Ami Super Brake Calliper Seals?
http://www.chevronics.co.uk/Chevronics_ ... brakes.phpsee Brake piston for the brake caliper. Per piece. Suitably for Citroen 2CV + Citroen GS. Or.Nr.: GX2526601A. Are 2cv seals the same?, would measure mine but they are somewhere deep down in the car.

 Re: Ami Super Brake Calliper Seals?
GS pistons are 45mm at the front rather than 42mm I believe.

 Re: Ami Super Brake Calliper Seals?
Ami Super front brakes are definitely the same as GS. Ami Supers use LHM. GSs use LHM. http://chevronics.co.uk/Chevronics_part ... brakes.phpFront brake repair kit listed, as one of their own Repro parts. Rob's a good bloke. Loves his Amis, too...

 Re: Ami Super Brake Calliper Seals?
I think he want's a set of seals for GS calipers that he can use with DOT5/silicon fluid. Presumably what he needs are Axel caliper seals, but I expect it's easier to have them made especially than find a set of those.
