velocity rear discs
FlansS14 - 28/11/06 at 05:58 PM

I have sierra xr4x4 rear hubs,driveshafts,discs and calipers.

on the website it says i need a bracket to fit the calipers. but the mount is on the actual hub (does that make sence)

so do i need the brackets or not. im confused lol

which type of rear uprights do you have - ones for drums or ones for discs.

I think ( not sure ) that if you have the correct uprights then no extra brackets are required - but some one with a velocity will confirm this for you.

if you have the disc rear uprights you dont need any extra brackets

Thanks for that. i thought they were ment to go on the front have you got the hubs on the wrong sides then.

also which side has the left hand thread! :S

The hub nuts tighten in the direction the wheel turns when driving forwards so when you are sitting in the drivers seat it will be the wheel on your left hand side.
