Struts are early pinch bolt style 911 struts. They should be 911.351.XXX.XX
The calipers are standard A-Calipers. I need to see the back to get you close on age but, heres some info: 7mm spacers = 74-83 911 and 911SC 11mm spacers = 84-89 Carrera 280 is just a casting number. See the small lines heading out from the circle? Those are cracks beginning to form in the original casting. From looking at casting numbers on limited production cars, we're guessing 500 units out of each casting. The back side has a widows peak with the fluid inlet at the bottom. If you see 3 potential fluid inlet ports (one left and one right of the peak but, only the bottom is drilled) it's an early A-Caliper from 74-77/78ish. If the sides are smooth leading up to the fluid inlet, it's a later SC or Carrera casting. Again, the spacers between the caliper 1/2's will tell you what they came off (for the most part). E. |
