Help!
I have cortina Mk 4/5 Steel Uprights, and the ally hubs from rally design. I have just ordered some MK4/5 cortina calipers (on line - another brake
company) and I am in the process of trying to sort the discs. I was in the process of ordering some that are again suitable for a Mk4/5 cortina, and
the company has just said to me the PCD is 4x92.1mm......I thought the ally hubs from RD were PCD 108's?? Am I missing something? I am now
thinking that the cortina calipers that I have ordered may not be right? Do I in fact need a different caliper and disc combo to go with these ally
hubs?
Confused!
Thanks in advance
Matt
Cortina discs don't fit over the wheel flange pcd they mounted a flange on the inside of the hub which has a smaller pcd.
Bugger!
Are the cortina calipers ok though with the RD ally hubs?
Any ideas on what disc I need to be searching for?
Many thanks

These are an example of the standard discs Apec Front Brake Discs Ford Cortina 1976 - 1982 on eBay (end time 01-Jan-11 16:14:32

Click 4 Car Parts but you can also buy vented and/or drilled and/or grooved discs which will fit. Most discs from Cortina/Capri/Escort I &
II/Granada II seem to fit
If you go for vented discs you will need to obtain a spacer kit for your calipers (I think Rally Design do them) or you could fit Austin Princess 4
pot calipers (with or without spacers)
Awsome ! Thanks alot. Just when I'm getting stressed cos I think I buggered up my shopping list you chaps come to the rescue! All makes sence.
Thanks for the help. Got a big build week next week, and the parts are coming in thick and fast!! Cheers again.
