    Gee, do you think my rotor is below spec?

    We have been stripping down a bunch of Early trailing arms and came across some fun stuff. Also discovered that very early (probably mid 65 and earleir) trailing arms used 14mm ACF bolts to hold on the E brake/bearing retainer assys. Frank Beck, take note. Actually, you probably already knew that.

    Regards

    Jim

    Jim, I think you should join the herd and put it on e-bay or the Samba with a $250 asking price. Eeven better, advertise it as a rare early Porsche racing race disc!!

    Excellent idea, Joris!
    I could include my special lightened factory 7 X 15 alloy wheel at substantial extra cost, too.

    Ciao

    Jim, there has to be an interesting tale about that rim!

    I had a 914 rear brake caliper where the pad plate was worn right through and the piston was wearing on the rotor.
