Big Brake Conversion
Discussion
Its a nice cheap upgade but i would eather build the kit up your self or buy a complete kit from hans..new or referbed calipers and carriers, genuine ford 278 or 283mm discs(machined down) correct spacer and pads.I upgraded mine front and rear and it totaly thransformed the braking..To get anything better you would have to spend alot more money..Have a look on fleabay under cosworth you will be surprised whats for sale..
Thats the upgrade I have, although I didn't pay half that for the entire upgrade including brand new disks.
You are better sourcing the bits yourself. Search on ebay for people breaking early V6 Mondeos and ask them to find the casting stamp on the calipers, then come to an agreement on price
I was lucky and found some from a Cossie that were not advertised as 887/888 and took a gamble that they were the ones (didn't want to ask as others may have spotted them
) They came with newish redstuff pads as well all for about £50+/-.
Disks I sourced from 'Buy parts by'.
The upgrade is a big improvement over the 235mm originals.
