Caliper Loose, Pin Sloppy? 700 1986

Hi All,

Making my way through a list of problems, now the Bendix rebuilt drivers front caliper seems loose on the upper guide pin? I can move it slightly by hand. Is it possible that the caliper sleeve is now too big/sloppy after the rebuild, or that I am missing some required part to make the pin and sleeve tight and true?

This is making quite a rattle at speed and needs to sit again until this is sorted out.

I saw some FAQ info on Girling brakes and a Volvo TSB, but this did not seem to apply to my Bendix car.

Thanks,

Greg
