HELP!(Again!!!)

Postby medic_dan » Wed Aug 25, 2010 5:25 pm

Dear all,
can anyone shed any light on what calipers these are? I thought they were Ford, maybe cortina, but cortina flexi hoses do not fit as they are 3/8" unf and the ports on these calipers are M10.
I need some hoses for them but can only find make specific ones.
Thanks
Dan

I would assume the Type 16 refers to Girling Type 16. As such they were fitted to all sorts - triumphs, fords, god knows what else. To me they look like early Cortina or possibly even Consul!

Nothing to worry about - just take them to a suitable motor factors and they'll make some up. A while back we used a place in Teapot Lane, Aylesford. 4 U 2 Fit will do them too I would have thought.

Thanks Dan,

I just googled the part number and found this thread......... http://www.lotuselan.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=17007

It looks like these mat well be cortina but a later version given the metric connections.
