Hi

Im after a pair of front brake callipers from a pre 1972 Type 3, these are twin pin like a 1972 bug but have a larger piston, they have only 1 bleed nipple, not 2 like the bug ones.

Steve

Im in Sydney, 0439 133 354 or webmaster@clubvw.org.au

Hi

Thanks guys, the bugs used 40mm pistons, the early type 3 used 42 mm pistons, the same as late Type 3 callipers.
