Lancia Beta Forum

does any one know if fiat x1-9  calipers are the same as beta coupe? i need seals front and rear and x1-9 seals are cheap on ebay

i managed to kit the cotter pins for the wedges but can find the springs that go on the brake pads, any one know where i can get some?

Are there supposed to be springs on the pads? I don't recall ever seeing any.

Have you got a picture ?

There are no springs for beta brakes!

Not sure if early models had them but later models were fitted with a brake pad anti-vibration spring.
lanciabetaparts have them, part no BBBK07 for the set, hope this helps.

I am fairly sure they are not. X1/9 callipers are like Fiat 127/128/131/132 which are similar to Beta but not the same.

Montecarlo (Fiat X1/20  ;)) callipers are probably the same as X1/9.

There are certainly springs on the (Beta) Trevi pads but normally come as a set with the pads.

often the springy bits come as an optional 'fitting kit'

OK Now I see them I have seen some pads with them though I don't think my cars have ever had them fitted.

Ditto !

I've had them on all 6 of my Betas.
