Rare New Genuine MG 2 Pot AP Red Brake Calipers

Two pot AP calipers i still have on shelf.I heard on the grapevine somebody trying to get these to work for the rear.

Shame they didn't put a handbrake mechanism on them.

Its not behind the realms of a respected engineer Mike Satur for example to get these to work.

These pictures should help a few of the myths surrounding two pots fitting or not.

The image below shows the 2009 LE 500 with V spoke alloys, these are the same original wheels as fitted to my 2005 TF; but they are 15" rims so the 4 potters should not fit!
Maybe some LE's had smaller discs with the AP 2 potters "strange"

That is not a LE500 it is one of the 906 MGTFS built BY NAC including five hundred LE500 Models fifty 85th anniversary models etc.[/quote]

The car above is for sale on the Motors website listed as a 2009 LE500, it also says it's fitted with the 16" 11 spoke alloys (obviously not)

Had a look for the 16" V spokes but can only see the 15" versions; were thay manufacturerd in16"?

Maybe if you had fitted them the right way up........

As shown in the 4 pictures when fitted to the hub removed from car.
The caliper is not fitted,the angle of caliper shows this. If you look at bottom of picture on right the other hand is on floor.The caliper as been slid over disc for illustration purposes if i remember correctly for a customer in Greece.,the nipple at bottom was irrelevant.This was taken a few years ago had no idea at this time i would end up posting it on a forum,and did think the other day when posted how long before somebody scores a brownie point by pointing it out..

It was only a light hearted post, but I want my brownie point. :yesnod:

It is worth pointing out though as people sometimes refer to pics on the forum when fitting things to their car and I have seen a couple of times where someone has fitted their new AP 4 pots upside down.

:lol:

They are deffo 16" wheels, Brian/GT MG.SPARES :yesnod:

Ok i will remove the picture of the caliper (slid over disk) and prior to saturday the other posts seemed unsure whether these fitted so initially was just trying to clear that up.
I see lots of posts on here with things i could needle about,but refrain from trying to be a smart bum.

No need to remove anything. :nonod:

I posted with a sense of humour, I even put a smiley on to hopefully remove any confusion.

Not sure there is any need to take things so seriously, but I do apologise if I have upset you.
