10712, can the front dics brakes be put on rear
Posted by ecl98pse, Jul-12-02 07:45 AM
i'm planning on upgrading by front brakes... now whether i go with the baer track setup or the gsx conv., i'm not sure but could i take the stock front disc brakes and put them on the rear instead of the drums or is that not feasable? i know i could go to the junkyard and get the read shit to do a rear conv., but i thought that since i won't be using the stock disc setup maybe it could be fabricated to fit the rear.

no, I think there is a deeper hat on the rear ones

no. You can try but you'll lose your parking break because there are actually two breaking systems in the rear. The disc/rotor and the parking brake drum. Hehe so if you ever need super braking stomp on the pedal and pull the ebrake :P
