They should be the same as the HZ PBR Caliper, other than the cast iron bracket being smaller on the LX to accommodate the thinner disk - and having Torana cast into the bracket rather than Holden

That picture is actually of a Torana body as it has the hose connection drilled and tapped in the top.

If you buy a kit to rebuild them you will have parts left over .

 

There is 2 different seals for the sleeve , the kit usually comes with both

That's because the Torana uses a different sleeve for one side. The sleeve closest to the tie rod has a recessed Allen headed bolt whereas the Holden caliper has two traditional hex headed bolts.

narr i know what you are talking about the recessed bolt , thats not it .

 

They change from a boot and a o-ring on the sleeves (like in the diagram ) , too dual boots on each sleeve

 

Dont know what year it got changed but thinking its about 78

 

Have some different ones here if you what pictures ?
