please kick him in the balls for me. Thanks

Then you'll say blessed is the 914 caliper

I would just put a C clip on his balls and give him a toothpick to take it of.

That must be the same guy that designed the front windsheild washer.

And who let it out of the factory without inventing plastic inner fender liners??!!

The rear caliper design was a common ATE caliper in the day. Used in other applications including the Ferrari 308. Leader screws are in the wrong spot, down low, when mounted on the 914 trailing arm. But they bolt right on, and allow you to run a vented rear rotor.

The design was fine, the years have not been as kind. Hindsight is always 20/20. Unfortunately the caliper was not in production to go through a redesign.

While yes they should have just did the 911 e-brakes on the 914, sad to say they did not. Lucky that is an easy fix with a welder and a few parts.

That being said, the last time I dealt with a 914-4 rear caliper was in the 80s on my Karmann Ghia

I love my stock 914-6 rears from PMB.

That is really the solution. Send pmb rusty corroded calipers, get back jewelry for your car.

We are blessed to have Eric in our fold.

The 911 e-brake with a second brake shoe is heavy and a waste of weight

Never seen it with out the second shoe, Do you have a picture Brant?

You should definitely steer clear of working on a Fjord Bronco II, a Maserati Bi-turdbo or a 928 if a 914 clapper is that much of a PITA
