This aftermarket disc setup was removed from a 69' bus.
Can someone identify it's manufacturer or provide any info?
The back of the caliper says "Delco Moraine Made in France"

Installed a set of CSP Disc brakes from Wolfsburg West. Started yesterday and finished this afternoon. Vey high quality kit from Germany. And expensive at $1,400 bucks!
Go to the galley under baywindow campers and I'll have some pics there in a few minutes. |

Actually no. I just picked it up for $500. It will go on my 69'. _________________ 70 Sunroof Kombi

Thanks Tcash, I knew I'd seen it but couldn't figure it out with that "Made in France" on it.
Do you know where the calipers are sourced from? I need some of the slider caps. _________________ 70 Sunroof Kombi

I put a disc brake kit on my '69 camper. When the job was complete I found out my OG 14" wheels would not fit around the calipers. I've been using 15" wheels on the front, but am considering switching back to the OG drums and wheels.

Sure looks like a stock 14" wheel here:

bottom line:
I ordered the disc brake kit direct from Germany many years ago. The kit I received was for a 15" wide five wheel. After installing a new MC and the kit, my OG 14 wheels did not fit and I am using VW wide five 15's. I have purchased spacers, which I have not installed, I have purchased 15" wide fives wheels from CIP1, which I have not used. I am considering either the corrects size calipers to fit 14's or reverting back to OG drums. This is a hack in progress. I have had many unanswered questions about wheel load ratings. Some opinions, but no facts.
Aloha
