You will have to put the other hubs on first. Michael Title: Re: hr drum front end. Post by: Rob_FE_56 on May 11, 2007, 09:46:43 PM G'day John,
The torana disks will go on the hr drum brake stubs but you will need to make some adaptor plates to bolt your calipers on with. Obviously you will need to fit an FE-EH outrigger to your hr crossmember. It works ok but if you can find some disk brake stubs you will end up with a neater conversion. Another thing to consider is that the LH-UC torana disks will widen your track by close to an inch on either side and causes guard clearance issues on lowered cars with wide (6"+) rims. If I was going to put disks on an original grey powered car I would put new replacement hr disks on the kingpin front end with adaptors for the calipers. The kingpin front ends drive pretty good. Cheers, Rob. |
