Biggred for caliper refurbishment

Guys

Have any of you used biggred for your brake caliper refurbishment, seem very reasonable at £69 for their cheapest option for sierra calipers.
thanks
J

Get in touch with your local GSF car parts

I got my recon items from them, mine are the calipers from the xr4x4 and cost more than the normal ones but they only cost me £23 each side (of course i had to give them my old ones) from them.

They had to get them in but i only had to wait 1 day, very pleased

Yep - Bigg Red did my Sierra rear calipers and did a really good job on them too! I sent them some rusty old rubbish and some beer tokens, and they send me shiny new calipers by return post - can't argue. I also got some M16 caliper bits from them at the same time (split pins, anti squeal plates etc).

Yep - very good.

Yeah, big red is very local to me... very nice chap..

However, DO NOT go for the cheapest finish option... I made that mistake on the TVR and before I even got the car on the road the rust had started to come back through again... I wish I had gone for the aerospace plastic coating... Would have been ideal!
