|
|
I have completely stripped down the front calipers. I have replaced all the seals and glass bead media blasted them. They look amazing! I am looking to restore the to exect OEM specs.
The question is, what color if any are they supposed to be on there? Mine were so dirty and old I couldn't tell what they were! I realize I can just spray them black hi-temp paint. Just trying to be through. Thanks everybody! _________________ Love me some toofa' |

Yellow cad or yellow zinc plated.

Wow. Thank you so much!!! I am now in the hunt for someone to professionally plate my calipers.
Are the rear drum brakes also yellow plated? Thank you for the insight!! _________________ Love me some toofa' |

Check out Eastwood. They have the correct color cad spray. _________________ 1978 924, aka The Red Rocker |

Sorry for the ignorance. But which yellow or gold zinc plating do I need? I found a shop in Sacramento, but I need to provide them with the correct product to plate the calipers. Thank you in advance _________________ Love me some toofa' |
