Default Mark VIII

I have a Mk 8 Jag which has been fitted with the Mk 9 period disc upgrade brake kit. I need new callipers as the old ones are so badly pitted i am told they cannot be machined. can anyone suggest where to get these or a new upgrade kit? any help much appreciated. thanks Mark

Welcome to the forum Mark,

I've moved your post from General Tech Help section to the Mark V - X section. Members with the same model as you will be more likely to see it here.

Surprised to hear the calipers cannot be machined. Provided the body itself isn't cracked, these can usually be brought back from the dead!
