Brake Fitment Kits
Discussion
Howdy,
After getting my calipers rebuilt I have been looking for the extra lolng split pins and the brake pad sprung steel clips that hold the pads in to the AP Princess widened clipers as fitted to the 450SE
After a day of trawling around the motor factor shops, it turns out the caliper accessory 'kit' for the AP widened calipers has to be made up of two separate brake fitment kits:-
The extra long split pins - Apec Braking kit Number 427
The metal sprung steel clips - Apec Braking kit Number 515
Both are almost an exact fit from the TVR old ones.
The pins from kit 515 and the clips from kit 427 will have to be binned however. I could not find one kit that did both unfortunately.
Apec braking is the make that our local motor factors use and should be readily available. If your local guys don't do 'em the address for the manufacturer is:-
Apec Limited
Quercus Cours
Armstrong Way
Great Western business Park
Yate
Bristol
BS37 5NG.
