What is included in an OEM Piston and Pad set?

[Guest]

Hi everyone, I was hoping someone would be able to tell me exactly what is included in the OEM piston and pad sets that can be bought from places like International Moto Parts etc.
The set I had in mind is for an 81 gs550L rear caliper (part # 69100-00810) that i am rebuilding. The pistons themselves may just pass, with just a small amount of pitting, but I would rather replace them while I
have them apart and if i can get the seals in the set it would definitely be worth it. Also, would I have to order the little piston seal o-ring that fits between the two halves of the calipers or is that included?
Thanks for your time everyone,
Cheers,
Yoss

The pads don't come with it despite the description. I don't think the seal between the body halves doesn't either but I may be mistaken. Just piston, piston seals, and dust boots for the pistons.

If you are in the US try Parts Outlaw for good pricing.

Hi Nessism, thanks for the reply. Can I just clarify whether the the set is for two pistons and the associated seals or do i have to order the set times two. I am pretty positive that I will only have to order one as the order quantity on the website is for times one.
However I live in Australia and new parts for old GS's are generally not available over here, hence why I use International Moto Parts (a lot of the other OEM retailers don't seem to ship overseas). If i could know for certain how many sets for one caliper it would speed up the rebuild time considerably as delivery time is normally about a month (sometimes a bit quicker, sometimes a bit longer; mainly due to customs over here and not a fault with IMP).

Thanks again,
Yoss

I rebuilt a rear caliper using 69100-08821. It came with 2 pistons and 2 seals and 2 dust boots plus the O ring between the halves. I bought the caliper used and was told came from 81 750L. It looked just like my original 77 GS750 caliper. Even if yours has a different part number, if it looks the same, then I'll bet it comes with the same parts.

Thanks Hannibal, I contacted IMP and they assured me that everything that is in the diagram that is 'between the lines', so to speak, of the designated part number is included in the piston and pad set. that would include the shims, pads etc as well as boots and seals but i will believe that when i see it

When I bought mine from Parts Outlaw, I called first to make sure it was all included. They assured me it was. Well, when I received it, there were no pads. Called them to let them know, and they told me that's all Suzuki supplied to them with the kit. They still sent me a set of pads, though.
