TR8 Brake discs

[Tom Maddock]

I am looking for the dimensions of the brake discs on a TR8.Can anybody help

[Alec Pringle]

Hi Tom,

 

very little larger than the standard TR7 units ! I think the 7 discs are 241x10 whereas the 8 discs are 244x13, both solid of course, and the popular vented Capri 2.8 units are 245x20.

 

Cheers,

 

Alec

I sure you can still get them from people like Rimmers, Robsport or S&S for some examples.

Hi Tom,

 

good price that Jim has pointed out, TR8 discs are harder to source and usually a lot dearer than TR7 discs.

 

Cheers,

Tom/Alec,

 

 

 

Thats the price for one Disc only on ebay.

 

I have had quick look and Robsport do TKC 3157 at £42.50 and S&S £40 per disc so depends who got them + postage and packing costs.

I realise that I'm a bit late to the party, but when researching a similar question of my own I came across the girling website linked below;

Search the catalogue by manufacturer and you should find a dimensioned drawing under articles.

 

Hope it helps.
