Mark, I've got adaptor brackets to mount up the calipers to G60 4 lug 11's, and the same calipers as you (older style = cheaper + lighter if I am not mistaken, they weigh 2.4 pounds each IIRC).. I have not rebuilt mine so I cannot help you there sorry. I also am unaware of the pads as I bought them as a package. I know a place where you can buy these calipers brand new for $101 each if you don't trust yours though.
Wish I could be more help. - Josh > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Mark Stanton" <[email protected]> > To: Josh <[email protected]>, [email protected] > Subject: Re: [a2-16v-list] No brakes > Date: Wed, 22 Mar 2006 16:01:08 -0800 (PST) > > > Josh, about your Wilwoods: > > I have some old ones I wanted to put on the front of my 16v (which has > 11" VW single piston calipers)...
