Default Saff 4x2 front brake setup on an Escos?

Hello,

The standard frontbrakes on the Escos are scary, at the moment i'm looking for a better brakesetup. Is it possible to fit Saff 4x2 calipers/rotors to the Escos? I know it's possible by the Saff 4x4 but can they also be made to fit the Escos? And if so, can you buy spacers to fit the calipers or will you have to make them yourself?

Regards,



Mark

whats 4x2 mate? sounds like youve been to the timber section of Travis Perkins

if you can source the saph 4x4 calipers then they will fit directly onto your hubs.

or if you wanted to spend a little more money then ive got a 6pot kit (brand new unused calipers) on 355mm discs that id consider selling.

By 4x2 i mean a RWD Saff instead of the 4x4. The RWD frontbrakes are a little beefyer than the Saff 4x4 or Escos ones. A Saff 4x4 setup wont do me any good i quess (exactly same).

I would like some information about the 6pot setup you're selling (Brand, price, shipping to the Netherlands and so on)

Regards,

i think a 4x2 is a 2wd car Kelv.

just either go for better pads/grovved discs or bigger/better brakes, AP, BREMBO etc....
