Sausage Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 Right, lost one, will pinch one off the wrecked TDI tomorrow, but want to buy a set anyways. I fitted the brakes as wasnt expecting to have too measure them. Ebay seems to think they should be 8.5mm https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-LUPO-1998-2005-2x-FRONT-BRAKE-CALIPER-SLIDER-PINS-GUIDE-KITS-BCF1302UX2/231668931333 and here seems to say thay are 8mm. I couldnt find my 8.5mm drill bit to test it but vernier calipers said 8.5mm was no go in my 280mm carriers. I assume (always a dangerous thing that) 256mm carriers are the same. 60 x 8mm according to that thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazy Posted February 2, 2020 Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 That eBay link says they fit my SDI which has a different front caliper set-up to the TDI. Pretty sure the TDI is different from the Sport also in that respect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sausage Posted February 2, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 (edited) 60 x 8.2mm is the size. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-X-VW-GOLF-MK3-1992-1997-FRONT-BRAKE-CALIPER-SLIDER-GUIDE-PIN-KIT-113-1301X/223541228655 I'd hope they just rounded down the actual numbers for the listing instead of making them 8mm though. More expensive but at least they state the right size: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-CORRADO-FRONT-BRAKE-CALIPER-SLIDER-BOLT-PIN-GUIDE-KIT-H1301AX/312046058196 Edited February 2, 2020 by Sausage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
