Hi all,

We've just started converting the Centura diff to disc brakes, however it turns out that adding discs increases the rear track by 40mm each side.

Unfortunately, I've already ordered my wheels. For everyone who has had their car engineered, are rear discs mandatory? Otherwise, I will keep my finned drums.

Another solution is to shorten the diff, but that will be costly. Are there any other solutions?

Cheers,

Josh.

No requirement for 4 wheel discs that I know of. Just have to have rear drums and wheel cylinders matched to the front discs.

Thanks Ken, that's what I've found too - no requirement for four wheel discs.
