Hi Does any body have any Granada mk2 vented front calipers with the larger size pads they would swop for some beer tokens ?

Hi Robert.

I have a set of the original calipers from my 350i..They would need the spacer fitted to accommodate the vented disc.
The N/s was working fine but the O/S was sticking a bit so could benefit from a rebuild....Email me if you are interested...


Cheers

They are the original Wedge calipers...If you mean for the vented disc then yes but they will need a spacer in between them..
Here are a set on mine with the spacer..And vented disc...


Pre-disc change..You can see the spacer.....

There are two types of Granada caliper. The standard 2.0 litre version are the one used on the 350i. The 2.8 injection estate front calipers are those used on the 390SE and also some SEACS. These are the ones that use the vented disc. Pad size for the two flavours are different even though they both use 54mm pistons. I think I'm becoming an anorak!

£55 each from brake parts.co.uk I got a new one for my 390 two weeks ago. Glen gave me the info even though he was on holiday in India. Top bloke and Wedge personality of the year.

I wish it was holiday lol......working :-(

This is the link I gave Keith. The bigger ones are these. This is for off side, clearly if you need both you'll need a near side also http://brakeparts.co.uk/#!/shop/FORD/GRANADA/77-85...
