Default focus st hubs

When putting st callipers and disc on a lesser spec focus do i need just the knuckle, or do i need the whole hub assembly. Any help would be great.

The hub and the nuck is the same thing mate and yes you need it.

I changed mine 2 months ago you need disc's calipers and the hub then they fit right on. I have pics if need be

No you dont have to change the master cylinder its fine, and for ABS, well my focus does not have it so thats where i cant help you.

The hubs have all the right holes fitting etc to swap the sensor over so that bit is easy, as for settings i dont have a clue. but i dont think it will affect it.
