Need help ID'ing some calipers
Discussion
Hi,
I've just bought some 2nd hand calipers for my Chim as it's still on 240mm & I do quite a few track days.
The person I bought them from never used them but he thought they were from a Griff (hence posting here)
As you can see from the pic they need a good clean up & I want to give them a service too.
So can you ID them so I know what repair kit to buy and pads and braided hoses too.


I can't remember what size the disks are on the front as the couriers messed up & I haven't got them yet, but I think the may have been 283mm?
Also the fronts seem to have 37 stamped near the clip for the bleed nipple, also looks like VL-U ? and maybe 079 but it's difficult to tell with the corrosion (and the other caliper is worse)
The rears have 67321, 052/4 (051/4 on the other side the / might be an A?) & 8282 stamped on them
Hopefully they will fit under my standard wheels even if I need spacers &/or a mounting bracket.
Cheers in advance for your help

If you want to do the 283 mm conversion at the front then you need some of these big boys:-

A found on Granada Cosworth, 4x4 Sierra Cosworth or Mondeo V6.
Casting number 888 and 887 are stamped on them.
I got these off of ebay complete with braided hoses (which I've already got, so don't need) and (slightly used) red stuff pads for £50 (they don't come up often though), just awaiting a lick of paint
