Almost godlike infact to weld the unweldable, they use an alloy that prevents you from doing such tom-foolery if i remember properly.deviant wrote:Ally welding. On a casting.

Re: need help with caliper
Shame it doesnt have a second bleed nipple like the rear zx4r caliper i snapped one of mine and my local garage welded the snapped one shut for me. Works well now took ages to bleed though lol.

Re: need help with caliper
It will do, as one is for one side of the caliper, and the other is for the other side. More than likely air will not pass between the two depending on location of where the air pocket is.....DazSH wrote:Shame it doesnt have a second bleed nipple like the rear zx4r caliper i snapped one of mine and my local garage welded the snapped one shut for me.
