BCC Rear Dunlop Brake Upgrade - Daimler 250 V8 Saloon
These replacement aluminium Dunlop style rear calipers provide a high-quality, direct replacement for original Dunlop rear brake calipers fitted to classic Daimler V8 saloons.
Manufactured in the UK, they retain the correct Dunlop appearance while offering significant improvements in materials, durability and weight reduction.
Each caliper is CNC-machined from aerospace-grade 7075-T6 aluminium, reducing unsprung weight and improving heat dissipation compared with original cast iron units. A sulphuric anodised finish provides excellent corrosion resistance, while stainless steel pistons and modern British-made seals ensure smooth operation and long service life.
Supplied as a complete kit, the calipers are fully assembled, pressure tested and certified prior to dispatch. Installation is straightforward, with no permanent modification required, using original mounting points and standard Dunlop components.
An ideal solution for restoration or upgrade where originality, performance and reliability are equally important.
