4X4 Cossy brakes were never renound for being great! They were just OK.
The sliding single pot calipers are not very efficient, OK for road use but not brilliant. I had been led to believe that the 2wd 4 pot calipers were a standard upgrade on FWD Escorts but maybe I misunderstood, I would have expected lots of replies if it was the case! I would have thought it possibe to fit a 295mm disc and some 4 pots inside the 15" wheel?
