Atlas diff on the V6 Capri (loads crownwheel from the rear) .
Different to 4 cyl Capri 'English' front load diff.

Wheels cylinders part nos :
FORD OEM V6 - 69BB 2261 AA Note that 4cyl 1600cc are 65BB 2261 AB
QH - BWC3282 which are listed as the same for 1600CC, have the same bore but the V6 has wider rear shoes

If you already have a pair, and can afford some down time, get them sleeved with stainless inserts. Any decent brake place can arrange this for you.

Really, the best option (IMHO) is to get yours re-sleeved. Never have corrosion problems again. Mine cost just under $100 4yrs ago, but should only ever need a $6 kit next time around.

Otherwise, try
Yesterford in Melb : Factory 1/ 21 Burgess Rd, Bayswater North, VIC 3153
p: (03) 9761 4714 ,
Kevin at Capri Clinic WA has them listed at $42ea + freight (http://capriclinic.com/product_info....bb2405e4438cd2)
......and probably some others too - do some net surfing.

Good hunting....
