Caliper Seal Kit For Samurais

There are a few different types of caliper found on Samurais, and I've come across two sets of these 2-piece Girlings now. They seem to be less common than the other type of Girlings or the Aisin calipers.

The problem that I found is that these 2-piece ones are pretty awkward to buy seal kits or parts for. I tried Brake Int. and Bigg Red, both listed other seal kits for what they thought should fit this caliper, neither fitted. If you use a registration lookup, they almost always list the wrong kit for these calipers.

It turns out that there is a seal kit which fits this caliper, it's for a Dacia Logan (front). If you have these 2-piece Girlings, then this kit from Bigg Red will fit them.

Yeah, it's one of those oddities that took a while to figure out so thought I'd share it.

They look the same as the ones I'm referring on the LJ, but not home for a couple of days. If they are I got my kit from brakes int. Will check when home
