yikes sorry to hear of your troubles...

You can buy seal kits but they arent cheap! fastwrx.com has them for ~US$80 for a pair. Suby Aus should have them too.

Are you planning on replacing the joining bolts, apparently they are stretch bolts and supposed to be one use only. Although I have heard of people re-using them without problems. If you do replace them I'ld be interested to know where you get them from.

Thanks for the info Gordy. I'll let you know what the guys do re the bolts.

Hopefully I'll have some news tomorrow.

Yeah - good point. I thought about it. He's a small time business that I doubt would even make that much money in month let alone agree to pay for it! I'd be chasing him with lawyers and fark knows what to get the costs out of him. Besides - Karma is a bitch...

I'll sleep at night knowing my brakes are brand new. Him, I don't care about.
