I have recently rebuilt my front calipers on my 5 and found out that the
Girling units fitted to Alpines are the same as fitted to 67 HR Holdens here
in Aus, They were made in there thousands and there is a ready supply of
brake parts. My local brake shop confirmed the parts were the same listing
in their books. I think 3 to 5 had the same calipers, as well as Tigers, but
I am not sure.
For Aus owners as well as any others interested.
Brake Pads Bendix DB525BS AU$39.91 full set
Pistons IBS DB2240 AU$70.40 set of 4
Rebuild kits IBS K393S AU$36.30 2 kits
There are complete new calipers available if needed. By the way, for US
owners, the above prices would be less than half due to 10% GST and currancy
differences.
