Moderator Airhead Posted April 15, 2013 Moderator Share Posted April 15, 2013 Luke dont you mean you found a caliper off a DTX model 2006 and will that fit a 2000 DTR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirriePete Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Why not just sort the one you've got - sounds like it just needs a cleanup of the piston and new seals. Worst case scenario is new piston as well - stainless steel one with seals about £35 from WEMoto. To get the old piston out, just refit the caliper, bleed the brake and use the hydraulics to push it out - or you could fit a bleed nipple adapter to a grease gun and pump grease into the caliper, that should shift the bugger!
