johnnyp 1 Posted December 23, 2008 i rang gsf to order a pair of calipers for a tu engined 1.0 xe i know they are bendix but he said there was 2 types and they changed over in about 1990 i didnt think there was a difference i the bendix caliper then he said he could only get the latter ones and i needed the early verision. Can i just get the latter model and use them thankyou Johnny Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pug_ham 244 3 Cars Posted December 23, 2008 I'd like to know what the difference is between the early & later ones. The only way I can think of two types is vented & solid but surely he hasn't got that confused? You should be Ok getting the later ones imo. Graham. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GTI6BOY 29 Posted December 23, 2008 (edited) might be a 2mm increase in piston size Edited December 23, 2008 by GTI6BOY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pug_ham 244 3 Cars Posted December 23, 2008 might be a 2mm increase in piston size Not according to Brakeparts.co.uk. The only change I can see is they stopped using the Girling solid disc caliper (which are listed as rare) around then & just fitted Bendix afaik. They still had the same sized 48mm piston though.
