Baywindow Bus Front Brake Caliper - Right - 1971-72

This front right brake caliper is for early Baywindow front disc brake systems. It converts hydraulic brake pressure into the clamping force that presses the pads onto the front brake disc. This is a new caliper, supplied individually, for the right-hand side of the front axle.

It fits Volkswagen Type 2 Baywindow Bus models from 08/1970 to 07/1972, including Transporter T2 1.6 from 08/1970 to 07/1971. Fitting position is front axle right, which is the driver`s side on right-hand-drive vehicles.

This is the early Baywindow caliper design and it is not interchangeable with later 1973-1979 Baywindow calipers. The main identifying differences are the mounting bolt size and pad gap, so this is important when checking what is already fitted to your vehicle.
