I aksed this question on the 200 board, but so far had no bites....you folks might know better on this one:
quick question--would the REAR brake calipers on 240's and a '87 740 turbo be the same? My friend wants to buy a caliper rebuild kit for his 740 and we can only find kits for the 240 rear brakes...they are both ATE calipers...if not exactly the same, would the seals and such be the same? If they are different, would anyone know where to get a rebuild kit? thanks again!

p.s.-for those who helped me get my friend's 740 turbo running, thanks a bunch! it turned out to be a combination of the dumb ballast thing beside the battery, the fuel pump relay, and a flooded engine....but we got it eventually!

well, since it's your second time asking, i'm bumping this post so that it'll hopefully get answered. :)

i would GUESS that it would be the same because they're both ATE... but don't just go on my word alone, hehe.
