I would appreciate that. So basically the top and bottom claws expand to different widths to accommodate which position they are in, narrower inside the puck and wider inside the piston sleeve? Or is the piston also hallow to allow for the same width?

I just called Roger and ordered a set.

After seeing how this all works, let me say I would not recommend this for a mainly street car because I can see how the bores will get dirty and cause the caliper to need a rebuild on a regular basis (annually?). Operation on salty roads with this set up would likely kill the calipers in short order. As usual no free lunch. With that said this is an awesome solution for primary track cars especially with cracked dust boots. No more worries about pucks not being in position when replacing pads.

Here we go, pics tell the story:

Thank you so much for the pics and posting!!

I agree, pointless for street use anyway, although mine is my daily driver I have no rubber left in there anyway.

How come you still had rubber in them? Mine burned off completely, no rubber seals to be found..

You are welcome and thank YOU for bringing up this topic to begin with. One less thing to worry about.

Are you trying to make me feel inadequate??
