ATE or Lucas Girling?

[iflylow]

What is the easiest way to find out which brakes I have? I have a 91 325 is cab.

I am overseas, trying to order parts for a brake rebuild, and found there are different brake systems. Is there an easy way to tell which I have? I will be emailing my wife, so hopefully it is a really obvious visual indicator.

Thanks in advance!

Visually they are stamped either GIRLING or ATE. Should be pretty easy to spot :up:

Awesome, I was hoping it would be that easy. Thanks for the quick response.

You gotta copy us on that email trail....
