All,

I'm in need of some SKM front brake caliper pistons and seals. Anyone have a source?

Thanks

NAPA? The last three kart brakes I've rebuilt had seals from auto drum brake wheel cylinders. And the pistons just needed cleaned up...

Russell Karting has SKM brake components. 1-888-KARTING is the best way to order, the website is a bit archaic. I've had some issues with my SKM brakes too, mostly in the master cylinder though.

Hmmm, I'll look into that possibility.

It turns out there are the same as ItalKart calipers. Much thanks to Eric Nelson @ Seventh-Gear for putting me onto that. Now if I can just get Italian Motors USA to call me back.....

Seems everyone (Fastech, Comet, Shark...) has "some" of the parts. Just in to much of a time crunch to try ordering from multiple places and hope they would all be delivered in time. I'm gonna give it until noon today, then start to panic.

Mr Hill, you're now my new hero! Russell had everything.
