the thing is, Willwood are the only people who show a kit. The Mustangs disc is also it's bearing hub (unlike a Sapph) .

at the moment I can get a kit for £1700 or $1800 depending where I go. I'm looking into machining down a disc into a hub or adapting Capri hubs.

bit of a pain in the arse really
