as most of you are probably aware i am in the process of fittin some 2wd cossie 4 pot brakes. this idea alone stirred contraversy and the usual "they are too difficult to fit, use the 4wd ones as they only need spacers!"

well i have test fitted them to see what work is needed and have come to the conclusion that i need...wait for it.......spacers!! same as 4wd, only difference being that i have to tap the holes in the hub as the calipers bolt into the hub and i need some braided hoses with a right angled connection so that i dont rub on the cv joint rubber boot. you can see the gap in the pictures...



the brakes on arrival



test fitted behind the wheel, they look so sweet!



and the gap! as you can see i just need some washers and it also high lights how it bolts


any feedback would be great and i will keep you posted on my progress, oh and any ideas on what colour i should paint the calipers?? (its a red car)
