    FZJ80 brake pad job maybe turning into overhaul

    Hey everyone. It turns out I have two front left brake calipers. I probably should've just posted it here, but have this thread on that: FZJ80 front brake calipers: Are left/right the same, or no? -...

    FZJ80 brake pad job maybe turning into overhaul

    Thank you for your reply! I only have pins for one of them. I gave the whole other caliper, with pins and pads back. I should definitely keep my smaller parts in the future. I think at this rate we'll just work something out and I'll just try to wrap up the brakes properly.

    FZJ80 brake pad job maybe turning into overhaul

    Getting everything back together, I'm in a pickle. I ordered a rebuild kit as well, but it didn't ship as I guess they found out it was out of stock. I thought I had it here, but I should've paid more attention. We were hoping to get the 80 ready for Saturday as we need an extra seat. I don't...

    FZJ80 brake pad job maybe turning into overhaul

    Hey everyone! Been busy here but finally starting to bleed the brakes. Or the lines, rather. I got the brakes off and they were probably salvagable but not something I really have time for right now. I checked out the Napa Adaptive One and was not impressed, so I bit the bullet and went with...

    I'm looking into caliper rebuild vs new calipers. It seems like it's best to get rebuilt ones, especially time wise, and maybe hold onto the old ones and rebuild them at my own pace. NAPA sells "Adaptive One" and Nugeon calipers. Their Adaptive Ones are $194 front pair and $132 rear pair, after...

    FZJ80 brake pad job maybe turning into overhaul

    Thank you! That is very helpful. I've gone ahead and ordered those. For flushing + filling a dirty system, how much brake fluid am I likely to need? Edit: I do have the FSM downloaded and have referred to it. Now I'm wondering if it'll answer my fluid question...

    FZJ80 brake pad job maybe turning into overhaul

    Wow! Thank you all for the help. You guys are great. I've heard that bleeding from top down is by far the way to go. Which Motive bleeder were you talking about? It sounds like they come with a generic master cylinder adapter that's supposed to work on the 80 series, but there's both 3D printed...

    FZJ80 brake pad job maybe turning into overhaul

    My FZJ80 has about 220k miles on it. It's been behaving very well, but obviously has a lot of neglected maintenance. Finally getting into the brakes. Was planning just on replacing the pads. The brake fluid, though, is very old. And I'm having a heck of a time pushing the pistons into the...
