Hey Guys. Howsit?

Most of us know the front calipers/pads on the TXII are widely available on a host of other cars/vans/light trucks; and of course, everybody's friend, eBay!

Given that almost nothing mechanical on LTi's taxis is unique... Does anyone know which other vehicle(s) the TX4's calipers/pads are from?

Get a set, get the reference number and you will soon find out, LTi will have changed suppliers if they had to (non-supply or on the stop list :lol: ) so be careful (I know for a fact thier aircon supplier imports from India)

BTW, there are very few "unique" parts for cars, Ferrari/Lambo may fit a standard Brembo brake disc+pads, Ford fit OEM filters - bought in, rebadged, and 100% markup

Theres more profit in parts than cars
