I picked a bunch of these up while helping to clear out Liberty Brakes old factory a couple of years ago.

Not being performance minded, I dont really know what Im looking at. They certainly don't belong on a tractor. Could anyone hazard a guess as to what these might belong to? The Part number doesnt return anything. biggrin

With the rounded part od the casting for the hydraulic line entries, and the two brace bars acros the middle, they are similar to these AP Racing calipers: https://apracing.com/performance-upgrades/performa...

But have three bolts each end holding them together, not the AP's two.
Old desing APs?

They look like VW racing 6pots. Not sure who's manufactured them though.

Edit. It was caparo. Looks identical to me.

They look totally different. The profile, mounting method....just totally different. Even a different shade of red.



Are the calipers all in pieces ? incomplete ?

Yes theyre all split unbuilt calipers. Not sure if theyre worth sticking on ebay or just nice shiney paperweights
