G’day all, What is the group using for performance front pads for 240 Girling calipers? (Bendix part number DB549) Bendix don’t make the Ultimates for 549s...
DS2500s and a rat-tail file... For the price, they're hard to beat. The elongated holes don't matter - I lost both pins from my 164's LHF caliper and did...

Nathan The front calipers on the LandYacht would be ATE, yes ? Same as the vented 164 brakes on the front of my 144. Out of interest, what $$ are the DS2500s,...
if you can get one still runs it will be slow usually. but you can get em repaired if thats all you can get. I converted the clock in my 144 to use a VDO...
I advertised on the group because I'm looking for interest as the car will not be ready for sale for another couple of weeks. I haven't included a price...
yes the modified LPTs are similar to a stock t5 when modded, possibly better from the reviews i have read. just out of curiosity,.can you enlighten us on the...
Yeah, the 164's got the ATEs with the smaller pads. The DS2500s you buy for them, have the holes in the right spot, but they do need about 1mm ground off each ...
The HiClones tend to work best when placed before and after the turbo, hence I installed a pair rather than just one. In my case the turbo was cutting in ...
Yes I was told to file the holes out as well, but I dunno…I’m not too comfortable with doing that. The problem for me is that the pads (if trying to insert...
Sorted, thanks to Angus & his shed full of 164 bits ! Andrew - yeah, I want to put an "original" clock back in the 144. The 240 clock will go into the dash on...
if the one you got runs slow you can fix it by replacing a capacitor inside normally. these apparently dry out and this slows down the clock. can be done by a...
I've noticed that they actually have an adjustment screw on the back, inside a hole in the case, usually covered by a sticker. The hole is just marked + and -...
this might temp help certainly if its only a little slow. it was used when new to trim the accuracy and should only give a few % adjust.. once the capacitor is...
The 1mm referred to the pads for the 164, not the 240. But in any case, you've been given different 240 pads than the ones we used. Don't ask me for a model of...
Ferodo DS2500 Frank & all, I never thought this pad subject would come up on OzHot ! With too much modification effort the Ferodo DS2500 can be made to fit,...

What about just welding up the original holes, then re-drilling new holes in the correct place? As was mentioned before, there isn't that much force pushing...
Yeah, you can weld up the holes and have another go. Just take your time and keep the heat out of the pad. Same goes for when you grind back the welds to give ...
Frank I would advise against the intense heat of welding, we are talking critical bonded components here. Plus harder than average steel becomes much harder...
seems the coil in my '81 244 is misbehaving - weak intermittant spark; had the RAC out to get it started (and identify problem). I also noticed a ballast...
if you can see a ballast resistir then your 240 uses a coil that needs to work with an external ballast resistor. If you put a coil in with an internal ballast...
