Default cossie stoppers on s2 plz look!

i have searched all posts about brakes n cant find what im askin... and i know this is asked a lot but im not another goon askin without lookin

cossie 2wd calipers apparently all you have to do is machine off 4mm where caliper mounts to hub so standerd rims can b used... am i correct?

then its what disk to use is it the 4x4 or the 2wd disk.

2wd disk is 283mm
4x4 disk is 278mm

well again "apparently" i cant go bigger then 278mm

but will the smaller disk sit right in the caliper??

lol this is doin me head in so will some1 plz kick me n tell me which go with what lol

cheeRS Ric.

you will need the 2wd disc, plus I honestly thought that there was a little more work to get them to fit than just machining??

You have to fit a different brake pipe/adapter because the pipe would be coming out of the caliper towards the drive shaft (2wd cos- rear wheel drive). Think you need some sort of 90degree elbow.
