Don't know if anyone saw Chris from Yorkshire Classics on the news (see link below)? Nice to see people pulling together to save some of the cars but a shocking situation to be in.

Fund raiser drive anyone?

Thanks for the reply - yes apologies it's a '72 GT6 MK3. The calipers appear to sit centrally and all looks good except for the length of the bolts! I may cut them down if I have to but would rather have the right ones. Very frustrating.

Hello,

I'm in the process of replacing my front calipers and after much debate and head scratching I have a set of Imperial 16P calipers. I found my old bolts had a flared step in the shaft which prevented them from passing through the caliper and into the hub bracket.

After getting in touch with Rimmer they advised that I should use Imperial Caliper bolt 113142. They turned up today and I was keen to try them out. They seemed to wind in OK but they're about 1cm too long 😲 ... meaning they foul the discs when tightened all the way up.

I am waiting on a reply from Rimmer but was interested to see if anyone else has had this problem?

On the website the part is described as 'Bolt - Imperial Short - Caliper Mounting' with the above part number but the bag they arrived in only says CALIPER BOLT - IMPERIAL. The same part number is listed on the bag.

Cheers
