4 Pot upgrade
 
Changing the fronts to 4 pots this weekend (weather permitting) and i noticed the 4 pot calipers I have do not have any banjo's or bleed nipples, will the banjo's and nipples from the 2 pot calipers fit?

Cheers in advance, Chris.

The banjo's will fit, not sure about the bleed nipples..... which just in case you don't know, should be fitted so that they're at THE TOP of the caliper when fitted...... you'd be amazed at how many people do it wrong......

I am 99% sure they do :thumb:

Thanks very much for the replies, i've just had another look at the calipers and they do have the bleed nipples so no need for those or the banjo's then unless they won't fit goodridge hoses.

Nice one about the nipples as it could have caused me headaches :wonder:

Went for Black Diamond discs and pads as the wheels and calipers are black too.

Something sounds odd...... the banjo's are fixed to the end of the hose, do not remove them from the hose, remove them from the caliper.....

Sorry if you knew that, it just sounded as though you were going to do it wrong......
Sorry!

I got the goodridge hoses but the bolts that connect them to the calipers are not with the kit I thought they were called banjo bolts but maybe i'm wrong, anyway it's the bolts I was wondering about.

Thats ok then, i the banjo's are fitted to the hose, the bolts should have been with the kit..... might be worth ringing goodridge, they may well send you a set!!
