They're fairly cheap as a reman'd set too. Make sure you make the correct modification to the caliper if you have 72-76 front suspension


Edit: now I see they're out of stock....

Try this source, says it's able to ship.....

Check out my most recent edit, Orileys says they have them available to ship.

About 1/3 the way through the article it talks about the modification necessary

That is not true. The Girling calipers need to be modify the same way the ATE calipers do. I have done both. I could have another set modified and rebuild them.

Ahhh, I see. The pelican article says to use the ate and not the girling. Thanks for clearing that up (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Bruce,

Are they for solid rotors or vented rotors?

Please let me know when they are ready for sale! I am looking for something.

I really don't want to buy an entire front suspension from a 911...! Ugh

I purchased a pair on Amazon, took the instructions to a local machine shop and had them modified.
You then need another brake line that you bend to fit.
I also added the 19mm master cylinder.
Not that hard.

I had a set of struts from a 69 912 that used Koni inserts. I used them on my 914 with 914 rotors and 912 hubs. Everything bolted together, no machining and converted to 5 lug using left over parts.
Oh yeah I used BMW calipers too.

What 914 rotors can be bolted to 912 hubs?(IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
Maybe 911 solid rotors?
