Type 25 Front Brake Caliper Rebuild Kit - 1986-92 (Girling Calipers)

This front brake caliper seal kit is designed for VW T25/T3 models fitted with Girling brake calipers from August 1985 onwards. Supplied as a complete kit for one caliper, it contains the essential internal seals required to rebuild and restore proper caliper operation.

Brake caliper seals play a critical role in the hydraulic braking system. The internal piston seal maintains hydraulic pressure when the brake pedal is applied, while the outer dust seal protects the piston from dirt, moisture and corrosion. Over time, these seals can harden, crack or fail, leading to sticking pistons, uneven braking, fluid leaks or reduced braking performance.

Rebuilding your calipers with new seals helps restore smooth piston movement, consistent braking force and improved safety. This is particularly important on classic T25 models where original components may be decades old. A properly rebuilt caliper will ensure even pad wear and reliable braking response.

This kit is suitable only for Girling calipers. If your vehicle is fitted with ATE calipers, you will require the correct alternative seal kit (part number 251698471B). It is recommended to inspect pistons, brake hoses and pads during installation, and replace any worn components as needed.
