Only thing I was worried about was bleeding the calliper.. I fitted the brake line and forgot I had the nipples loose on the calliper.. after a few minutes brake fluid starting running out on its own!Is that the caliper you bought off me from ebay?
I used an old brake disc to pump the pistons out and it more or less bled itself.. couldn't believe my luck!

[size=1.35em] I gather others who have done this mod have noticed the calliper isn't centre on the disc? I used a washer as marked on the above pic to centre it. Does leaving it slightly to one side make any difference? [/size]
