I took of the girling calipers for a couple of reasons. The primary one is for some reason I had trouble fitting a rotor to the spindle. The old rotors where shot. Every rotor I mounted up left the outer bearing inner race slightly over the threaded section of the spindle. The rotors all worked in relationship to the caliper but I was not comfortable with the bearing placement.

So I made the decision to get the three peice rotor setup from Wilwood and machine the hub so that it better fit my application. That way when I needed a new rotor they where easily obtainable. After pricing out the peices to do this it was within a few bucks of just buying a complete kit from a discount house like Jegs. So I thought, why not! I had to make a caliper adaptor for the wilwoods to fit but that is not a big deal.

If you need some part number, measurements, etc, let me know. If I recall correctly they are 1.625" pistons. Also if I recall correctly, these run about $175 each rebuilt and about $400 new. Plus the pads that come with them where pushing $100. These need nothing but a new home! They where purchased from NAPA about two years ago and the calipers had about 3 or 4 thousand miles put on them but the pads have probably about 500 miles on them and the are a very long wearing, no dust, high CF, Kevlar pad.

Thanks
