Farmer_Terry Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 We need to replace / refurbish the brake calipers on the front of my Caterham, and I wondered if anyone could identify what we have. There are some photos of the calipers here.Any hints / tips / pointers gratefully accepted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Macquarie Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 They look like standard brakes to me:Girling Type 14.Replacements / spares usually available from Rimmer Bros. amongst others.Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OliverSedlacek Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 They look like the S3 era standard calipers, Triumph Spitfire Mk IV. Rimmer Bros as per Ian's suggestion, but also most other Triumph specialists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john g Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Yip, standard calipers, Rimmers or Redline. I've had replacement seals from Redline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
