Rear brake pad pin sizes

Hello all.

Can anyone tell me whether there are two different sized pins in the rear calipers please?

Kind regards
David

Nope, the stock 914 calipers have two different pins in them. The upper pins are, I think, the smaller ones and the lower pins are larger. (I could have that backwards.) This requires you to drill one of the mounting holes in your rear brake pads oversize to fit the larger pin.

Someone over on the Club board posted a photo of the two pins recently.
