2008 Low Rider
My first Harley, bought used, Road the bike 4 times and was attempting to ride it to work on one of our rare North east early spring days.
I got half way to work and my rear Brake caliper Locked up, I road it enough to get off the highway, but by the time I got to a safe place and got off my bike the Caliper burst into flames. ( Yeah frigging HOT )
I purchased a used Caliper but it needs a rebuild kit, every where I look the 08-17 rear brake caliper complete rebuild with pistons are out of stock. I mean everywhere even Harley doesn't have them, I didn't even see a new rear Caliper on the Harley web sight only the front.
Does anyone have any Idea where I can get a complete rebuild kit for the rear Caliper double piston?. The only numbers on the Caliper are either 2232J or Z232J cant quit make out the first digit if it's a Z or a 2 on top,... on the front it says 2 5 but in between the 2 and 5 is a symbol that reads I93 inside a circle.
Please excuse my ignorance this is my first Harley
I am mechanically inclined enough to know that I will have to take off the rear rotor and purchase a new one I'm sure it's warped as it's a solid Rotor and not a floating rotor. I also know I'll have to check the Hub and bearings because of the Heat. I just need to know where I could find a rebuild kit with pistons.
Any help would be great appreciated
