[DML] Re: Front Brake Calipers

["James" <james.a.wallen@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Klaus, would you or Elvis happen to know the part numbers?  I'm on the ATU website and they only show a 78-82 Granada.

Do these part numbers look familiar?

2.8 I V6 118KW/160PS 08/77-07/81 (2)
168830 Right
168829 Left

2.8 V6 99KW/135PS 08/77-04/85 (2) (This should say 2.3L)
168820 Right
168819 Left

I figured I'd pick up a pair for myself and put them on my own car when I get back stateside.
