| Post subject: | Tie Down Calipers |
Hi, I have a 2005 FW 210 Horizon with four disc brake trailer. The brake caliper pistons were seized and the seals were trashed. They are Tie Down calipers and master cylinder. I have cleaned up and rebuilt the master cylinder and all the calipers/pistons but I'm having trouble finding replcement seals. Although they look OK I would still like to replace seals in the master cylinder but the caliper seals have to be replaced. I found the piston boots are identical to Kodiak but the piston seals are impossible to find. can anyone help? Cheers K12 |

Did you contact tiedown to see if they could provide you with a source for the seals? |

Champion Trailers is usually a pretty decent source for this type of stuff. http://www.championtrailers.com |

I had Tie-Down brand with the earlier solid rotors (not the newer vented rotor so I do not know about the calipers on those) I had the pistons freeze up within a year of saltwater uses. My solution was to switch to the Kodaik brand after getting no assistance on reasons or solutions from Tie-Down --Now after five years of salt water use ---I have had no NO problems wth the Kodaik brakes and we use the boat very frequently in Florida -- we also use the brakes a lot as evidenced by a recent tow of 13 hours each way. I feel they are superior to Tie-Down -- and a few other people feel the same way. |
