Finally got the Z up Friday night, from my in-laws, where I was working on it some evenings, hood down for 60 miles, lovely.
Stripped all the brakes yesterday as it was budgeted for, and pretty bloody obvious a caliper was seized solid, one wheel was black with brake dust . . and the disc was bright blue!
Immediately obvious as soon as I took the wheel off, the dust shield was ripped to bits. Supposedly it passed an Mot six weeks before I got it too. Nae Chance Chief!
Doing both as the dust boot is ripped on the other side.
Just going to order rebuilt calipers, only £19 difference and easier to paint.
