#1 Later brakes - early differential

Post by Sirjames » Mon Jul 02, 2018 7:19 am

Hi
I'm about to modify the back brakes on a 1967 E-type, I'll fit vented disks using Rob Beere's kit.
Does anyone know if it's possible to fit later calipers on an early differential?

Thanks
James

I have Series 2 calipers on my Series 1 final drive unit. I did cut away parts of the cage to give future access for pad changes etc.

I can send pictures if you want.
