Need a n/s/f caliper for an 88 240 GLT. Can anyone recommend best place to source. Thanks.

I’ve bought 2 complete sets of remanufactured calipers from brakes international, link below. Pretty much any motor factor can get them though, as well as brookhouse/parts for volvo/ebay etc.

Of course check whether your calipers are ate or girling, vented or solid front discs. Almost certainly girling and vented, but worth checking before ordering. Might be worth replacing both (or all four) calipers at the same time, along with all the flexible hoses.

Cheers
