Hello all just a quick one is there any difference between 2wd and 4wd 4 pot callipers????
If so what is the difference???

Thanks in advance

 

I assume your talking about the fronts? I didnt think the 4wd came with 4pots. Just 2 pots. may be wrong but even if they are 4 pots they are different

 

4wd saffs came with a 1 pot sliding caliper,it was 2wd saffs that were fitted with 4 pots.A 2 pot was never fitted to any RS Ford!!!

 

Surly the 4wd would of been better with 4 pot brakes?

 

yea it was the 2wd came with the 4pots and the 4wd came with 1pot with sliders

 

Yes but 4WD were not 2WD running gear, so oviously money isn't going to be spent if they can otherwise cut back.

As said 4x4 doesn't have 4 pots, it's simple single pot sliding design all round, front discs are different sizes at the front as well, and are a different type at the rear.

Ok so the difference is 2wd had 4 pots and the 4x4 didn't!!!
Got it lol
So I assume the discs to suit the 2wd 4 pots are tge 283mm????

 

Could you put 2wd calipers on a 4wd? I bet i have to make a stupid bracket that i could never make lol.

I understand would the money cut backs and all but 4 pot is going to be better so really ford should of put them on and just charged customers.

 

Mount a lot different... Sure 4x4 the calliper is at the front and 2wd there at the rear of the disk...any reason for this...?
