I have a set of brand new Brembo discs for a 1970/71 Earlybay.

Ideal if you are using the top hat converters for the later calipers or for the very first bays with discs.

Still boxed £60.

Realistically collection only due to weight or can take to Stanford Hall or CamperJam.

Cheers

Could be interested but not sure whether correct discs for my 69 as they did not come with discs on my year bus, any ideal how to tell if correct?

To be entirely honest, no.

I bought these for my RED9 kit, but found out that RED9 uses Late Bay discs, the hubs are the same, but the offset is different.

That does not really help a great deal........
 
Low lighter, you will need disc brake spindles as well cos drum spindles dont have caliper mounts. I believe I'm right in saying than any year spindle will fit tho as all ball joints are the same.

I think Valentine means his bus has been converted to discs, but he is unsure if Early or Late spindles were used, well I think thats what he means :)

Yes Shaun,

Narrow 5

I took some measurements on the discs:

Outside face of disc centre (the bit the wheel matches up to) to outside face of disc (the bit the pad rubs on) 70mm
Inside face of disc centre (the bit that mates up to the hub) to inside face of disc (the bits the pads rub on) 73mm

Disc outer diameter ~= 275mm
