OK I know this has been discussed before, I've been searching the previous postings.

I can't find a definitive answer.

I've just bought a couple of xr4x4 front calipers , which I understand will allow me to fit 260mm discs to my V8S.
Is this correct ?

Can I just do a swap without fiddling with brake valves etc, or do I need to give that some consideration ?

Braided hoses and decent pads/fluid also worth doing whilst you are furkling around down there.. smile

£25 for the two, £15 delivery.

It does say he's breaking more than one xr4x4.
