Done the conversion and have done a couple of hundred miles now, the discs are bright but just for half the width of the brake pad area. Is this because they still need to bed in or are the calipers out of line?

Im just collecting bits to do this conversion atm, how do i know if i have the bias valve on the rear subby though, as im not sure if i need to order some gt rear break cylinders

[$way]

you can look and check if you have a bias valve.

its where the line from the front splits to each rear wheel, there will either be a simple 3 way or a bias valve. the bias valve is a lot larger and looks like this: -

i realised i was talking rubbish so i deleted it.

green mini means you will have a 3 way splitter on the back thats all. but as you already have disc brakes on the front then the bore size of you rear cylinders is fine. just change the front brakes and away you go!!

[Tomf]

oh good, so i wont have to change my rear wheel cylinders?

[miniboo]

nope

[Tomf]

cheers hopefully ill find some drive flange soon, then i can get started
