Petersubaru Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 (edited) Does anybody know where the recommended caliper pin lube called "Niglube" can be Purchased..I have used all the other alternatives, (sli-lube, crc, permatex, even a very thin grease for cv joints, etc)..my experience with the "sliders" are that they seize up or become very difficult to slide back and forth...when initially installing the pins all seems good with plenty of free movement, but re-checking after 2 days the sliders become very difficult to remove (I have done this inspection 5 times already)...they simply "hydro-lock" , even with barely useing any grease...the pin bores are machined with tighter tolerances then previous much older cars...a friend of mine at the local brake shop said that they are having problems with returning customers, those people with brake systems that have caliper pins with the rubber tips attached to the pin...be it ford ,subi, gm etc.. it does not matter...a good silicone brake lube is not the answer for long term usage..I simply don't like the "browning" to occur of the inside of my discs Edited June 29, 2009 by Petersubaru Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avk Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 There's a part number for it that can be dug up, but I remember it doesn't come in small tubes and costs at least $40 or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
