[QUOTE="NewWinger, post: 109918, member: 3115"] Hi, I sent my rear caliper out for PC and it came back minus the little rubber gasket that goes between the two halves. This part is NOS and is pretty much unobtainium. Well I researched what kind of rubber is compatible with brake fluid and it turns out that EDPM will work just fine. I bought a 1' square sheet of 3/16" material for about $8 bucks. Now I had to figure out how to cut it. Turns out the diameter is just under 1/2" with a center hole of about 1/8". Turns out HF has a 9 piece hollow gasket punch kit that has 1/32" all the way up to 1/2" for $8 bucks. So, looks like I have $16 bucks invested in my gasket, if anyone wants a new one send me an email with your home address and I'll send you one free. I figure I can make about 300 of them with the stock I have. Guess that cat is skinnned. :whip: All the best [/QUOTE]
