Can only see the first set of pictures, they appear to be Jag rear calipers in pretty good nick.

To me they're not worth that much, cos i rebuilt my during my wedge rebuild so mine work!!!

Give someone like David Manners a call and ask for the price of re-con calipers. dont know their number off hand though...sorry.

Got to be honest they look different to my rear calipers but it could just be the angle!

I paid £63 each exchange for new rear calipers from David Manners last month without the hand brake caliper though.

Dont know what the other calipers are from, im use to 4 pots

The first two photos are of the same (one) caliper. Sounds like the consensus is it is a £60 Jag/Tasmin rear brake caliper including handbrake attachement and pads. - but is it the nearside or offside?

Theyre all brand new unused.

You'll have to wait for me to give my opinion. I'll need to lie on my back in oily overalls, with dirt and grease in my eyes and hair, and blood on my hands before I can recognise anything on a Wedge.

The bottom calipers look like the std 280 / 350 ones for the unvented discs so not very desirable sadly. Ask down the local ford dealership then halve the cost and you might flog 'em. Course they could be the later 2.8 vented type caliper in which case they'd be worth a bit more.

erm...the content blocker wont let me see the photos at work..so i'll try and describe the scenario so you can figure it yourself!

The calipers are mounted on the upper forward side of the diff. with the handbrake levers pointing forward. The handbrake calipers actuate when the levers are pulled towards the centre of the car, soooo...
Get your calipers with the handbrake lever pointing "forward", pistons at the bottom handbrake assy at the top...if pushing the lever to the left actuates the handbrake pads its an offside caliper, and vice verca...

Does that make sense?

[SEVANS]

Apologies I did mean to reply to this earlier. The rear Caliper is for the near side.

Thanks Steve and Iain - much appreciated.

PS Good luck to both of you with your restoration projects.
