Caliper Crush Washer

Does anyone have part numbers for the crush washers front and rear brakes? Fronts would be cobalts rears would be solstice. I've tried to find locally and they don't match up. Thanks in advance for the help.

This might go against the grain, but I actually like used washers better than new. New need to collapse to seal correctly and to collapse them seems like you have to **** near break the bolt in tightness. Used ones are already collapsed and conform easier. I have a stash of washers in my tool box. I can see if any fit and send you some if need be.

Thanks RT! I have the old ones and can reuse but they seem very deformed to me. Sounds like you haven't had a leak when you have done this in the past?

As long as they are still pretty much round, they should flatten out and still seal if they are just in "used condition".

Depends on how bad they look. If they are still mostly round and in tact without flat marks, they should be fine. New is technically the way to go, but if new leaks, go back to old.
