Hi! I have a 2002 sedan MK1 focus (1.6 zetec SE) and just started to upgrade it, and the next step is my brakes!
My question is, can I fit ST170 brakes for sure on the front? Do I need to change anything on the front? Because I read that I need new hubs for example but the hubs are the same on the ST170 and on my 1.6 zetec focus (?)
I would appreciate if someone who already did conversations like that can help me!
Thank you for the help! Cheers (from Hungary [img]data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7[/img])

 

Hello, before doing any upgrades to the front brakes you will need to fit St170 hubs as the calliper is integrated to the hub on a standard focus but the st170 are bolt on. The rear brakes are likely to be drums, these can be removed and hubs fitted for disk brakes just 4 bolts each side but you will need custom flexible hoses as the drum brake lines go up the wheel arch where the disk brake lines go along the arms.

 

Depends. For the german market ANY MK1 Focus was fitted with rear disk brakes.
