I have a 1980 264 and need to replace a caliper. Is there a way to tell which system by vin ? If so where can this info be gotten at? The tag is missing.

Which caliper? You can visually identify them. You generally should replace them in pairs per axle. I've also fixed them by disassembling and cleaning out all the passages, they just bolt together.

I need to replace , fluid running out. Need to find out if ATE or Girling? Plan is to replace all capilers and rubber lines etc.

I seem to remember that the Girling caliper had a big "G" cast into it. Andy I.

Good old Rockauto... I refer to them quite often:
formatting link
on "More Info" brings up pictures of calipers. From their listings, your front calipers will be Girling, then either solid or vented rotors. The rears can be Girling or ATE.
