Thomas, The information you've provided and the picture suggests the brakes are out of an early 240K. The callipers look to me like they're Akobono and this should be stamped on them, if it's not then it beats me. The strut length from above the balljoint housing to the bottom of the spring weld should be just under 10" or if it's just over 10" then the strut will be 200B. Some 200B & 240K brakes components are interchangeable so you can't assume that it all started out as a complete unit. If you've got difficulties getting bits for these brakes then 200B Sumitomo (import wagon) or early 200B Aus model 10/77-7/79 Girlock callipers should fit.

The thickest part (I assume this is the one needed is 32mm, the thinner part after the taper is 19mm, the threaded part is 18mm and the thin bit at the end where the split pin goes through is 15.5mm.
