sr73087 Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 So I continue to find missing and aftermarket parts on my project banshee. I knew I needed a caliper for the front left wheel, however when I pulled off the front right I found this. What bike is this from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfrjag Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Old style banshee 88-90 j arms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sr73087 Posted October 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Is there an advantage to running the older style front brakes? Its a 98. Also here is the master cylinder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sr73087 Posted October 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 The reason I ask is because if the older setup is no better or worse, why swap these onto a 98? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwriter Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Actually that style is 87-89. The 90 was a J arm bike with late style brakes. The spindles, hubs and rotors are different between the 2 styles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYUK Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 The reason I ask is because if the older setup is no better or worse, why swap these onto a 98? probably cobbled together, old style calipers mount to the old style spindle. maybe it was all the previous owner had.

m671054 Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 Anyone know off hand if extended brakelines for early calipers are the same as later ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwriter Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 Early brake lines have a fitting on the end that screws directly into the caliper. Late style calipers use a banjo bolt. Someone on here used the late style lines with the banjo bolts on the early style calipers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sr73087 Posted October 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 I just want to make sure my rear brake setup is stock. Here are a few pictures. This stayed the same throughout correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
