Default Quick question

Converting the rear brakes on 2wd Saph Cossie to 4x4 vented discs, do I need the whole caliper, carrier, handbrake cable and different lines as well or just discs and calipers?

Regards, Kieren

Cable is the same. But you will need to remove dust shields. Cut them off if corroded or you will need to remove hub.

I fitted 4wd discs on back of my 3 door and fitted discs, calipers and carriers but the dust shields were fine nothing catches on them at all so just left them in place
