diagram of rear caliper

Post by backyardbill »

Can anyone provide a diagram of the rear caliper, especially showing the hand brake lever. I think mine is missing a part.

Please look at photos 1 and 2: http://www.glocktech.net/fiat/restoration/Day%208.htm

Is anything missing? Is the black cam piece going into the caliper oriented correctly?

This car was a basket case and I an trying to straighten it out.
Thanks.

There is a wedge shaped piece missing. If you can't find it, I have a spare one or two.

I am going back to the garage to check the left side caliper to see if it is missing there too. I will get back to the forum in 20 minutes. Thanks.

Yep, that pawl piece is missing on both rear calipers. Do you have 2 of them? How much?

Thanks.
