Excellent caliper, I have a brand new pair waiting for one of my cars

Gaz 88

Any chance of a measurement off one martin?

Yes, no problem.

Gaz 88

I need two of the bridge pipes but alcon dont list them for the caliper i have got anymore and my calipers are designed to take a 36mm disc and the normal are designed to take a 32mm disc so dont know if the pipes longer. as ived been told they are an actual wider caliper.
And want to know if the bridge pipe off your caliper will fit as these are still available.
Heres a pic of my measurements




Ived also got another pic from the outside of the fixing (at the end of the pipe) to the outside of the opposit one.




It measured 145.95mm


Cheers martin

My calipers are designed to take a 36mm disc too but I do know that you can use bridge pipes for a 32 on a 36 and vice versa.

Gaz 88

exactly what i was thinking, get some brake pipe and fittings and a brake pipe kit and make your own

tabetha

On the caliper pictured, it needs ideally to have some means of fixing the pipe alongs it's length across the front of the caliper, they have been known to fracture pipes here.
Best bet is a hard setting sealant stuff like sikaflex.

Sorry but it looks as if you've bought some calipers that belonged on a XKR. And have been messed around with.

I have the ones that accept a 32mm disc and I'd say they're definitely wider on yours.

What car are you trying to fit them on as your going to need custom bells and brackets. Ap aren't going to have off the shelf parts for you.

Martin-Hadland

His calipers are the same as I have on the shelf and are designed to accept a 36mm disc, you can however use a 32mm disc. Bells and brackets are not a problem.

Gaz 88

They are off an xkr-s as you say mate but they accept a 36mm disc. I got told that if you run a 32mm disc and the pads run down the pistons can be over worked?

did you get my pm martin?

Martin-Hadland

iTrader: (2)

Yes, will reply later. 32mm disc isnt a problem, just don't run the pads with less than 2mm left.

Gaz 88

Ok cheers martin!
