I don't feel too comfortable using the mis-matched 911 M calipers I have and I just remembered I have a complete early 912 suspension in my storage shed collecting dust....
From what I can find, they appear to have the same diameter pistons, and I'm hoping I can just use these along with the spacers from my 911 calipers. |

Should be the same with the exception of the 7mm spacer. Depends on the year of course but... if they look the same and the pistons are the same, they're m-calipers.

thanks....I "remembered" that one of the M calipers I took apart last night belonged to Jon Watts (he rebuilt them a while ago..oops (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) ) anyways, I'm trying to talk him into sending the parts to you for plating if you do that sorta thing without rebuilding/refurbing them.... now to go take apart the 912 suspension and hope there are no more black widows in my storage shed (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif) |

And this is why you shouldn't give anything to Mueller that you value. Even if it doesn't have any sub-parts I'm sure he'd figure out a way to divide it at the molecular level (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif)

We can do it for him. $40.00 a pair.
I think I have a set of 7mm spacers if you want to convert your 912 calipers... I'd have to check. Attached image(s) |
