Hi all

Anyone got access to an original MGB Parts Book for an early '60s model MGB - looking for the original Lockheed Part Numbers for O/S and N/S brake calipers.

Many thanks

112018 is the model number. the rest of the numbers designating left and right are so badly cast (and these castings are like new) that you can't see them.

Thanks very much smile though not the answer I wanted!

MGB brake pads, pad retaining pins & clips and caliper pistons all fit the Lockheed calipers fitted to the early '60 Rootes Super Minx range (Mk1 & 2 Sceptre, Vogue etc) so I'd hoped that the calipers might have been the same - apparently not.

Well I have a couple of old calipers (actually not bad and perfectly usuable) you can have them for a fiver plus post to find out if you like. I can chuck some old pads in for free.

Don't know if it helps bbut there's a company near Worcester called Bigg Red that supplies seal kits and will refurb calipers etc.
