You need to a have a seperate system for your handbrake to your normal brakes. If you just plumb in the hydraulic handbrake you car will fail the MOT. That means either keeping the handbake cable, even though it will actually do nothing. Or using seperate callipers for you handbrake.

got 335mm rear discs on mine,just had these monster handbrake calipers back from hi-spec motorsport,after me getting all the bits chromed, who needs a seperate handbrake caliper lol ;)

sorry for the crap pic, merry xmas!! :top:

looks very bling that and an easy bolt on that will do the trick job but i like my hard to make AP twin jobby as i looks :cool:

ive waited a long time to get these sorted dunc, there basically the same as ive already got on there,minus the handbrake bit. just got to wait for a nice day now and il swap them over :banana: ive got that use to not putting the handbake on i probably wont use it anyway now lol.

yrs do look :cool: :top:

didnt know that you didnt have a handbrake at all :eek:

love the chrome brakes ( i want some )

but, you can not do handbrake turns on an escort or 4x4 saff as its permanent 4 wheel drive.
you will just keep moving or lock all 4 wheels.

if you want to do handbrake turns you need to convert to RWD / fit a electronic center diff ( as grp A cars had )........... :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

I have the hi spec catalogue arriving any day now.

i cant wait to see it.

handbrake turns????
if its a standard gearbox 4wd, its not meant to have the rear wheels
stopped for a hb turn, there are rally gearboxes that have handbrake
release,and they cost££££££'s
