Is this to go on a Rocklobster? If so, will you need to customise its mount or make a custom one to stop if fouling?
Also, can you mount your Speedo sensor as normal?
I'd considered this you see, as I had one on my SJ but wondered about these issues.

Yeah, I already have all that.
This is just a replacement caliper, With a proper pivot point on the arm rather than the cheap and nasty original one that would stick on and wear one pad out. I'm also going to add a return spring on the arm to help out.
The pads being £60 a pop it can get expensive. I got both of these with what look like(after measuring) new pads for £58 quid all in sent from America.
The pads are very basic, But other than buying them from foundry 4x4 i've never been able to find them anywhere else.
The calipers were fitted to many small tractors and dumpers and farm equipment ect, But seem to be made of unobtainium from othr suppliers.
