AP Refurb
 

Friends of mine is looking to get his APs refurbed after his valet man has ruined them using unfriendly wheel cleaners.

Anyone any good recommendations?
Cheers in advance,
Barry

Cheers Neil but I think he's after a more comprehensive refurbishment with seal change and complete strip and re-paint.

Godspeed do the full refurb bit. Ap can do a service but they don't paint.

Hey,
if youre on instagram check out @paul46rider his work looks brilliant, he will do seals also,and his prices are pretty reasonable.

otherwise i can upload some pics if you like? and can get his contact details

Get them posted on here :) it always good to see someone's work and finish :)

Buy seal kit from questmead and replace seals by yourself....

if I can do it anyone can - even Smac:)


tools needed

footpump
block of wood (to chock the pistons as you pump)
blunt flat bladed screwdriver, to pry out seal

plus gas/dismantling fluid
maybe a source of heat to loosen bleed nipple
8 or 10mm socket for nipple
brake fluid
brake cleaner


I then got a mate to paint mine gloss black, i think it cost me a few bacon butties and some beer
