Brake help needed QUICK!

Anyone know where I can find a rebuild kit for the calipers on my XJ1100?

At a minimum, I need the inner and outer seals, but as long as I have them off, I should completely rebuild.

I want to ride again soon!!! If anyone can help, please get in touch with me. Post here or e-mail me directly at dhawk01@earthlink.net

Thanks!

Many times you can actually re-use the seals if it wasn't leaking and only sticking. Polish the pistons and clean the bore really well and re-assemble it. Worst you are out will be a little fluid. Of course new is good if you aren't in a huge hurry.

Holler to Chacal, he probably has what you need or can get it for a reasonable price.

Master Cylinder Rebuild Kits:

mc1) OEM and aftermarket brake Master Cylinder Rebuild Kits contain all the operational parts you need to correctly rebuild your master cylinder: piston, piston seal, piston spring, piston rubber sealing boot, and retaining circlip. NOTE: the piston seal does not come pre-installed onto the piston, and at first glance, you may wonder "how the heck do you get that small seal opening over that large piston?". Well, lots of lube (brake fluid) and patience and a small, dull pry tool works wonders. Make sure that you install the seal with the flared seal "lip" facing towards the fluid outlet!

NOTE: be sure you very carefully clean and inspect your used, original master cylinder for any damage and rebuildability. If the pressed-in steel piston bore is badly scarred or pitted-rusted, then it must be honed to a silky-smooth finish before installing new components. If pits or scratches are too deep to be removed, it is best to obtain a replacement master cylinder (new or used) rather than to try to rebuild a damaged original. Remember, your life literally depends on your brakes....not always in day-to-day riding, but when it counts the most, in an emergency situation; and those always happen in the blink of an eye, and without prior warning.....

Master cylinder rebuild kits contain the piston, the piston seal, the spring, the plunger end seal, the plunger dust boot and its retaining circlip.
