2008 VE Calais V V6 LY7
on an 2008 VE Calais V, checking Front brakes to change pads, noticed the dust boots were cracked , and when touched they seem to crack perish further.
So looking at ordering Protex caliper rebuild kit 210E0270.

Figured as if need take calipers off to install dust boots (pistons and slide pins), might as well do caliper main seal inside caliper bore as its part of kit.

Question re taking off the caliper and unbolting the Banjo bolt.

From anyone who has already done this, do you recall the size/dimension of the copper crush washers ? on either side of Banjo bolt. Where to source these?.

was hoping to source all bits upfront, otherwise i assume would need clamp brake hose, take Banjo bolt off to measure the crush washers and go out to buy some at a fastener shop or Repco etc.

thanks
