Interesting little issue with rear brakes, Have a 2003 110 back axle assy fitted to Gordon (1993 200tdi 110) and I ordered new pads.
Went to fit and they are too thick by at least 2 mm. Even without the SS shims.
Discs are on minimum thickness 12.2mm as per manual and I have removed the wear lip, otherwise in very good condition.
Pistons are flush with the caliper bar about .5mm.
Tried both Ferodo and Mintex both exacty the same dimension.
Distance between caliper internal faces is 47.5mm which is the same as a spare set at the local garage.
I am completely confused :mm
Any ideas anyone?
