Standard brake pivots bush kit?

Post by Beddo88 »

Hi All,

Does anyone know of any suppliers that do a brake bush kit for the Rocco? Is this something you can even buy?

Also, any suggestions on a good place to buy a gear linkage bush kit? Got mine from GSF last time but it's starting to wear a little.

Cheers
Dan

Have you tried the dealers, they may still supply them, I mean if the originals lasted for a good few years then may be worth paying a tad more?

Not certain what you mean by brake bushes. However, when I last replaced discs & pads on a mk2 (2007, I think) I had to renew the bolts and sleeves in the calipers - this all came from the dealer as a kit with bolts, plastic and rubber sleeves.

To be honest, I'm not entirely sure what is fitted to them (haven't had a proper look yet) but had the thought at lunch time so thought i'd ask!

Basically, if there are available the bushes (OEM or replica) that the brake pivot pinks go through on the bulkhead. I'm not sure what these consist of, but I suspect they wear and are allowing a bit of movement. It's annoying more than anything... but something I'd like to replace.
