406 Diesel Brakes

[cammmy 1]

Hey Guys

 

Got some brakes from an SDTD 406 that was being scrapped ( the ones that take 283mm rotors). I need to buy rotors though so before I do; does anyone know whether or not they will fit on a 405?

Yes it should fit straight on the complete brake system. So go ahead

Epic!

as long as you run 15"+ yes

 

late 405's ran the same hubs as the 406.

I have the 15" speedlines but the car is a Ph1. 1991

[welshpug 1,621]

that's fine, the earlier hubs are the same dimensions but not hollow cast and have a smaller balljoint.

Can you upgrade to the later ones and is it worth it for a car that will be used for motorsport? Are they lighter/stonger?

[welshpug 1,621]

a little stronger but no lighter, you'll need the later wishbone as well, afaik as the pin is larger in the balljoint, larger balljoint too.

Cool, won't worry myself with it then
