Title: Rear non floating calipers for 124/polonez
Post by: miro-1980 on December 24, 2010, 12:56:14 AM
Hi,

I am looking for non floating calipers to fit 125p / Polonez mounting holes which could accommodate disk size 257 ?

Anybody knows which other Fiat/Lancia/Alfa models has such brakes?

alfa 164?
it has discs in the back.
i have pretty much whole car in parts. i'll take a look in a day or two and let you know what size those are.

i suppose you need calipers with handbrake mechanism?

checked, alfa 164 has floating callipers.
a stupid question: 257 is a standard size for front discs on 131? if yes, than argenta VX and turbodiesel should have what you need

Djape,

The standard front disk size front is 227 !

Incidentally , the rear caliper mounting holes (center to center is 145 mm)

And yes : I want ones with mechanical handbrake mechanism.

hmmm
that means 257 goes with 14" wheels or 15"?
argenta had 14" and non floating calipers with mechanical handbrake in the back. gotta check the size

As far as i can tell they all had drums. Could be mistaken, though. :)

argenta turbodiesel and volumex had discs in the back. also had rear anty roll bars.
i got both rear axles but they're buried under a big pile of other bulky parts. i scavanged them with the idea to use rear discs and anty - roll bars for my 131 and 132.
also, they both have 3,44:1 transmision ratio which is much longer than standard 3,73:1 for 2 liter petrol version of 132/argenta. some people like to have long transmission ratios but not me. i like it short, so if anyone is interested in those differentials, i'm willing to part with them.

by the way, does anybody know are the diferentials interchangable between 131 and 132/argenta?

[b]argenta turbo di , volumex[/b] 12/41,13/41 (v) not drams and the propshaft is bigger than all (heavy duty)
argenta mk1(1981-1983) and (fiat 132 1978-1981)the size of the diffrintial is same but ther is diffrent in the rear brake master
argenta2000ie mk1 and fiat 132 2000ie 12/41 (v)
