I have a 325is with girling front calipers and I've been browsing around and can't exactly find the rebuild kit for my car, I only find stuff for ATE calipers. can someone point me in the right direction? I'm going to get new lines, seals and whatever else i'll need for my brakes to be fresh again.

Pelican parts sells a Girling rebuild kit for $14 looks like. p/n 34-11-1-154-440-M134 -
Those seem to only be the seals, from my understanding there is a set of bushings in the girling that I can replace too?'87 alpine white 325isComment

The rebuild kit has everything you will need. I would suggest some stainless steel brake lines if you can. They help brake feel a lot. With the Girling Calipers there aren't any bushings to replace. Just the dust boot and piston seal.

Oh alright thanks a lot, i'll be buying the following: brake rebuild kit all around and stainless steel brake lines, I already have new pads and rotors. Is there anything I'm missing? Another thing I was wondering, I keep remember that one of the front calipers (ate or girling) was a weaker design or twists some way can someone clarify this for me?Last edited by var1ant; 06-07-2007, 12:14 AM.'87 alpine white 325isComment

I went to O'reilly, and they had a refurbished caliper for me when my singular rear cliper cracked the piston guide ring (WTF) it was $35, and I needed it bad. (drove home from an AX w/o brakes)'89 325i track sloot

while you're doing the job, it's a good time to replace wheel bearings if you're still on original, also a good opportunity to switch to wheel studs. Get some new calipers too. Bead blast and paint/powdercoat your calipers while you have them off.Comment
