*I THINK* some merc vans before sprinters from 4 series up used the same calipers.
Also im nearly sure that I read/heard/dreamt that some older iveco vans used them aswell
Im sure a grown up will be along shortly to clarify.

Have you just been and asked Mercedes for a quote or could you already guess the answer
Older G wagons used a few different makes of brake parts and in the past we have had to tell the dealer which make was fitted to ours before they could provide a part number for brake shoes. IIRC most of the new parts we bought have come from GSF. Last time we rebuilt the front brakes on ours, the callipers got sent to http://www.biggred.co.uk/ to be refurbished.
