Hi all, 

 

I have 7.5" discs on the front after converting from 12 to 10" rims. They rattle an enormous amount as it seems they don't have any anti-rattle clips like the later 8.4" calipers do. 

 

Does anyone have a solution to this? I can't seem to find any anti-rattle clips for this caliper size?! 

 

Thanks,

Pete

Small amount of copper slip on the back of the pads where they touch the pistons. There are some anti rattle shims that go between pistons and pads as well.

Thanks nicklouse, what are the anti rattle shims? I can't seem to find them on any online shop...

Part number is 17H8630 but you might not find any.

Have you got the dust shields fitted ?

Loose them if you have !

I haven't, they got binned a long time ago! 

 

I have a feeling i've figured it out. I don't think i ever changed the split pins when i changed to the smaller calipers. Ordered some correct ones as i believe they are slightly thicker, and should stop the pads being able to move as much.
