FS: 560 SEL/SEC Rotors, pads, etc $750
(2) Zimmermann Brake Rotor Front: 126 421 05 12 SP
(2) Zimmermann Brake Rotor Rear: 126 423 00 12 SP (2) 560 SEL/SEC front calipers ATE that have been rebuilt, and loaded with some pads Please note: Zimmerman xdrilled rotors all four corners that have been nickel plated and cryogenically frozen by www.frozenrotors.com. I sold my 83 300CD, and never got a chance to put these very nice rotors on, that is why they are for sale. Price $750 OBRO. I'm open to reasonable offers. Rotors and MB pads alone are about $500, so keep that in mind. Also, I would expect an offer greater than $500 because I am including rebuilt calipers loaded with some pads. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220221856575 These would be great for someone that likes to keep their SEL or SEC looking nice or a w123 that has the bigger brakes and is in need of new rotors/pads. BTW, YOU NEED AT LEAST 15" WHEELS! So ditch the bunts!

Do those fit right onto a 123, or do you have to make a lot of modifications to use them?

I like everything perfect, and this is what I did. I orderd 560SEL dust sheilds, I pulled the hubs, took off the old rotor, redid the bearings, bolted the zimmerman cross drilled rotors, then put the calipers on and I was golden. You could cut the dust sheild or take them off if you want. I just choose to upgrade dust sheilds too. so the answer to your questions is YES!

The brakes are not only are vented, but also they are also much bigger, 300mm in diameter to be exact.

I added pictures. Man, they look great and offer great rust protection of the vanes, and it makes your set up look cleaner. Once the pad surface on the rotor wears off or is turn off, they look normal, except the hats and vanes look nickel plated. I hope that helps.

They are obviously high quality parts, but who can afford to sink that much into their brakes?
I hope you hook up with the right person. Tom W

I paid $500 4 years ago just for used front calipers rotors and backing plates. I was going to throw these on my 300CD, but I sold it before I got the chance. All I need is one buyer that knows how good this deal is. If you want bigger brakes, you cant go wrong here. Those solid rotors on the 300D/CD are junk, these 560 vented rotors at 300mm saved me a few times on the freeway and dodging big game animals. So if you value your life or car, bigger brakes can definately help. Same goes with good headlights.

I edited some of these posts for clarity and relisted the calipers on ebay.
if you win, and you are a mercedesshop member with more than 100 posts, I will give you free shipping on these within the lower 48 states. Thanks http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220221856575

Man that's a good deal, but I don't have the funds after my $700 suspension job.

just front calipers.
There are a ton of rebuilt rear calipers on ebay though. Well you gotta start somewhere, why not from the ground up? |
