Ive got a binding right front disc brake. The disc has a small crack on the edge. For a quick fix i want to change the disc, pads & caliper.
I dont mind supporting the TVR dealers for standard ford parts but the only caliper i could find was £170 + VAT.
Any one know of an exchange refurb part. One company has a 2 to 3 week turn around.
A part number would be handy.
The disc is easy to find. driving

Good to see a TVR tinker, tinkering on to keep the cars going.
Its what this site is all about. If you dont know, someone will know.
Hope LucyP does not see this or we will incur she/he/its wrath for tinkering. argue
