Just upgrading to these 330mm discs, and changing to braided flexible hoses as rubber ones were an advisory on the MOT. Thought I'd better check the bleed screws and found that both have stripped the thread in the caliper.

Does anybody know a decent refurb or helicoil type service in the Northwest or Midlands?

Thanks

In the Midlands try BG Developments, an AP brake specialist.

Thanks guys I'll give them a call on Monday

It was just typical that I had everything to change both the front and rear brake disc,pads, shoes etc, and the first caliper I look at has stripped the thread!
