spot the difference

Post by suzukisteve » Tue Feb 19, 2013 1:49 pm

ok so long story short I ordered a new caliper. it looks about right but slightly different. ive got a girling breaking system. the back looks the same but the top looks different. also the new one doesn't have two big allen bolts holding it together

Even if they are Jap calipers I think you can just use the jap mounts.
Might be wrong, Scottie will be along to correct me if you can't ;)

Think the new one is a vit caliper uses the same pad but piston is smaller. Possibly.
