Rear Discs.......Help required please!!
Hi all,
I'm in the process of converting from drums to discs on my English axle. I have pretty much all the parts requierd and will photograph as I go
for future reference for anyone considering the same.
I have one issue. On the offside the position of the caliper when offerred up hits the Panhard Rod . I cannot re-position to the top of the disc as
it hits the coil or the front as it hits the trailing arms. I need to move the caliper and disc out/ away from the hub. In order to dio this I need
a suitable disc with a shallower bell....I can then space the caliper bracket accordingly to suit.
I currently have MK4 Escort discs (solid) which are 240mm dia, overall height 58mm. There's a pic in my archive cunningly named "Escort
Disc".......could someone attach it to the thread as I'm unsure how to do this.
My question is does anyone know of a similar disc with shallower bell.
Help appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt
