[Fwd: Re: urQ/Coupe inner door seals : a substitute is found... question about URQ rear callipers]

[Geraint Lloyd]

the subliminal message behind that is

"The Golf 2 is soooooo good that I'm trying to turn my
URQ into one" ;-)

Regarding your rear calliper issue I have a question
for the list:
Has anyone on the list tried fitting golf 4, passat 5,
etc ally rear
callipers to an URQ?
I have them on my golf 2 and the revised
handbrake/turning-brake
mechanism seems much much less prone to seizing than
the 1980s stuff.
Just a thought....... there are enough of these
callipers about in scrap
yards.

Morte Couilles, j'ai oublié d'envoyer ça à la liste!
A bientôt
