Title: Re: rear discs on fc ute Post by: Revhead_Fc on March 22, 2002, 10:19:51 AM Hi Gazza I have recently put a VH commodore disc brake rear end in my FC sedan which fits by shorterning and cuuting off all commodore brackets and welding on leaf spring saddles alternativly which I would suggest is to use a VN onwards disc brake rear end as they are stronger and have a wider variety of gear ratios but they are a little bit more expensive
Hope that helps Revhead FC Title: Re: rear discs on fc ute Post by: brads59 on June 15, 2002, 08:17:57 AM hi mate.My fc sedan is running a volvo diff.
The track is the same and the stud pattern also,it has disc brakes and is pretty tough.They are a 3.54 ratio and all you do is cut the holden leaf spring saddles off your banjo housing and weld them to the vovlvos.Happy cruising.

There are a number of ratios available (cheaper as the ratio gets lower) and two brands of diff, the main problem seems to be getting an LSD diff. The diffs seem to be good value for money though.
