Jon - What's the difference ....

Jon, I've been looking through the online shop and noticed that some of the part numbers are duplicated, with an "A" suffix. The "A" parts are much cheaper.
For example:
N63115 BRAKE SHOE SET-REAR ZX HATCH GIRLING SYSTEM 13.50 Add
N63115A BRAKE SHOE SET-REAR ZX HATCH GIRLING SYSTEM 4.24 Add
Do you know what the difference between these items is and are they any good?

Generally, if a GSF number ends with a A then its an "alternative", if the A number is cheaper than this means that its an alternative brand. In the case you raise the N63115 will be OE quality part such as Lucas Girling, or Bendix. The A is a pattern part in this case.
