Hi,

Just going over the LJ , and checking pads etc.

Can the brake gurus advise if these calipers/discs are factory?

I'm looking to buy some spare new pads, but the Hawk HB169 that are fitted, either fit these calipers as a fluke, or they are not Holden calipers.?

I had a look in the Holdens LC shop manual,and LJ Supp... but these look a bit different?

Thanks in advance.

 

p.s. I asked the workshop foreman for advice, but he was busy ripping a soccer ball to pieces!

That's the same retainers I have only used, in all my  LC Torana's, I'm sure.

What's this off? Got it with my calipers but looks different to those I've seen. See above. upa8yhu6.jpg

It's not an LC/LJ brake hose bracket so I'm guessing it's off a Holden K/T/G model which is probably what your calipers were originally fitted to.
