Under the landy today and noticed the rear ns caliper is leaking on my Salisbury axle .
Now..I fitted this axle to my 86 110 7years ago to replace the drum axle and rebuilt the callipers with new pistons and seals at the same time.
I've found the receipt for the caliper kits (stc 1281) but rather than do them again with chrome pistons I would like to use stainless ones instead, I've recently done the fronts in stainless as well.
After googling for ages there appears to be 2 types of chrome pistons , pre and post chassis number 1A*****
But..
Only 1 kit listed in stainless (DA1172).
I can't see how the stainless kit can fit both pre and post 1A**** when normal pistons have different part numbers (and prices!)
Confused I am...
My rear brake pads were STC 1601 and held in with 2 pins/ clips per caliper if that helps identifying my axle year?
Ta for any help, going to have to mail order as she's my only form of transportation and I don't want to risk driving her or ordering the wrong pistons
