Re: Type 3 Calipers - More Info


Jim and All,

I definately do not know all of the history that you and many others do
but here is some additional information from my experience. Both
calipers that I purchased are the same part number. The manf's. label
reads in all caps " rcfd 0070.6, conjunto dianteiro fixo d.40, caliper
assy front d.4," then "vw  Sedam 1300   (76...), brasilia (76...), sedam
(76...)". Both boxes and calipers are identical. Now either I've been
hosed or something has changed. The car is stopping better than it ever
has so the parts work. One thing that I did notice is that was not an
"offset" on the pistons like the originals, now I did not dissassemble
the new calipers and I was in a hurry to get the car ready for Monday
morning but I did look them over a bit and it appeared that the pistons
were not "directional". I am more than willing to investigate if it
appears like something new and of course if I got the wrong part I'm
sure to know soon enough as well.
