Title: Brake parts ~Sourcing
Post by: the_matrix_master on May 29, 2024, 03:25:05 PM

Can anyone steer me in the right direction for sourcing some parts for my 1600 spider.
Required
Front and rear discs
4 x front flexi brake hoses
Rear wheel bearing

Any if I wanted to go down the route of replacing the caliphers front and rear,Could I buy them off the shelf on an exchange basis or would I have to send mine off to Whoever ? to be refurbed?

Thanks

Hi

I bought my brake lines here, ignore the 6 lines comment, I received the front 4 and had to ask for the rear two, but decent price and helpful.

As to disks, try EBC, they seem to do them in batches.

Wheel bearings available various places, you could also try Mark at lanciabetaparts.co.uk?

Hi.
I struggled to get a binding caliper sorted out to get my car to the 50th celebration the other year.
I bought discs and pads from EBC at the time.
Omicron engineering seem to have front discs in stock at the moment.

I used Brake caliper solutions in Barwell Leics for the remanufacture of the original calipers. Fast turnaround, competitive price, good work (bleed nipples had previously  broken off) to make all good.

I think you will struggle to find replacements calipers. Which is why I had mine remanufactured. You will also know they will fit the car having them remanufactured.

Midwest Bayless have the front discs, postage may be expensive though!
