Just academic, now that you got them to send you a fresh one, but I guess I didn't read your post carefully, thinking I knew you had an '84-- the green book specs I have are up to '85. So I went to see what Bentley says, thinking your '86 might be different.

Bentley doesn't talk 260s, so it calls out only one spec -- new 24mm with 20.4 the minimum.

Now, I'm concerned about the Brembos I purchased, that were most certainly not 24mm thick new. I know it's only a silly two millimeters, but that might make a lot of difference in life and resistance to heat damage.

Maybe it isn't the thickness spec that was wrong on your disc, but the offset instead. And maybe if I want a better disc, I should avoid the Brembo that served so well in my former life (before Volvos).
