RE: [doc] Brake Caliper Seal Kits

["Richard Hanlon" <rahanlon@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Correct - the fronts are Cortina - a Girling part.  Your car-shop should be 
able to get you the p/no from their brake-book.  Tell them 1981 cortina - 
apparently all Cortina models had the same calipers around 1981/2.

There was a range of calipers on the XJ6, depending on engine size, and I 
never got to the bottom of which precise model - but the shape of the brake 
pads is siginificantly different between models.  You'll want the square 
ones, (not the annular ones) which I ~think~ was from the 3.6l XJS.  From 
that, the car-shop should be able to determine the model of the caliper.

Good hunting.
