Yes I know but no one will sell just the pad carriers so had to buy the lot but for £50 it ain’t so bad and the callipers are in better condition than mine so it’s all good

I’ve cleaned everything to bare metal in the blast cabinet we have at work but making sure it’s all soaked and cleaned after in a parts washer. Thanks for the compliments
