Paging Peter Florence
Hi Peter I've had some good leads from Board members but cant seem to track down a source for the ATE 34.11.1.158.692 caliper rebuild kit. Any ideas ....Bav Auto dosnt have the kit and I think you have to be a supplier to order direct from ATE. Would appreciate any help. Karl

Re: Paging Peter Florence
Mesa should have them (see our links section) and Jim Stansfield knows a lot more about an e12 than BavAuto does.canada karl wrote:Hi Peter I've had some good leads from Board members but cant seem to track down a source for the ATE 34.11.1.158.692 caliper rebuild kit.

Re Mesa
Thanks for the info Peter. This looks like the source for both my caliper rebuild kits and discs.

If I may-
I'd bet what Mesa calls 'quality German kits' are the same as these that I just ordered
http://www.autohausaz.com/search/produc ... pair%20Kit
Cheaper here and free shipping with orders over $50

Autohaus
Looks like another good source. I'm in Winnipeg Manitoba and a lot of Parts places wont ship out of the US and when they do UPS charges brokerage fees,handling fees,Duty,surcharges, a tax on the tax etc so It almost costs as much as the parts order for shipping. I should try to locate an Autohaus/Mesa type supplier in Vancouver BC. Your in Seattle....ever hear of one over the border?

If you get it send via old fashioned donkey-cart mail, the border fees are considerably cheaper, if they bother to charge you at all. Alternatively, see if somewhere like Pembina or Neche or one of those little just-over-the-border places has mailbox rentals or some other sort of drop. My father-in-law has an address at just such in Pt. Roberts WA, about 15 minutes from his place in BC. I've had motorcycle parts shipped there, he had Tire Rack ship tires there - works like a charm. If there isn't one in one those little border towns in ND or MN, you could probably set up a nice little US-based business doing just that.
