These are on a Jag rear in a 32 Ford. Anyone tell me what YEAR Jag? Looks like all identification stuff has been ground off. I need to rebuild them and am not sure what to ask for when looking for a rebuild kit.
could try one of these places, they ought to know http://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/ http://www.jag-lovers.org/ Other than that, the piston diameter would be the best indicator of what's needed. Were there any rubber dust covers or bellows? Make sure that there isn't any pitting on the sides of the pistons; would be pointless to put a seal kit in them. I bought an XJ6 IFS set-up a while back....of the 8 pistons, 3 were beyond use. These were chrome plated, but still had corroded enough to warrant discarding.
Those aren't Jag rear calipers.... Stock Jag rears are two piston and include the emergency brake. Don't even look like Jag fronts, those appear to be aftermarket. If they're aluminum bodied, that's the most likely explanation as nearly all Jag calipers were cast iron. They look like they may be a older Wilwood design, but could be off nearly anything....
OK Got it-- Yep Old Wilwood or Afco -- Now I am on track! Sometimes ya need a whack upside the head to get the thought process to work. Thanks!
