CF250 front disc brakes

And another upgrade for the winter are disc brakes for the front.
If anybody know's off a complete set with stub axles, disc and calipers for sale, please point me in the right direction. Seized calipers are no problem as I can get them rebuild.
Even if somebody knows about a scrap van/pick up which still has them fitted, I could come and remove them myself.
Any leads?

Hi Guy. Last weekend was good. We stayed at Hatton Country World, a Caravan Club CL site. Very nice and quiet.
The modern motorhomes at the NEC were something else. We can only dream and if I had that sort of money, I'd rather pay our mortgage off.

Been under our Bedford today for a check up. So far I'll need one new wheel cylinder at the NSR.
I'm pretty much looking for a complete disc brake setup. Ideally a scrap van I can take the whole lot off myself. I think front disc brakes were only fitted to CF2's and it needs to be the 5 stud wheel version like ours, so 250 chassis, not the 6 stut wheels of the 280 and 350 (twin rear wheels).
Cheers Frank

Wheel nuts.

Hi XSFrank,

If I mind correctly the disc brakes had thicker wheel studs, but I might be wrong I seem to remember someone having that problem a while back.

Hey Guy,
If you're looking for brake shoes, tell them it's a CF1 (CF250), short wheelbase with single rear wheels. Advantura won't mean anything to parts guys as that's just the body type. The chassis is a CF250 single rear wheel.
Try Specialised Motor Components at Ashley Road Parkstone.
When I bought my rear wheel cylinders they said they also have a couple of fronts in stock I think. They can order the brake shoes in if needed.
Cheers Frank
