![]() everything on mine is new other than the rear drums.
thats good to know dave as mine are 8 inch with 1.8inch shoes. that works out at 1/3 less surface area combined with the smaller slave cylinder. |

![]() 240's on the front. more than enough for a 500-600kg car. when people fit willwood callipers they actually change from 240 vented to 260 solid. if you go too big you will just lock the wheels too easily.

![]() Why would you change to solid? It will have the same rotational force and pad surface as vented but without the benefit of the disk cooling under heavy use.

![]() i believe its an exercise to reduce unsprung weight. As 7s are so light brakes designed for a tonne of sierra are overkill.
