SebringRS Posted October 12, 2011 Report Posted October 12, 2011 one quick question.......can you fit drum brakes to mk1 escort coilovers??
SebringRS Posted October 12, 2011 Author Report Posted October 12, 2011 Reason being, i have enough money to buy the coilovers, but not enough for the brakes also, so just wondered that for the time being afterwards, i could run around on the drums until i have enough for the discs
Andrade Posted October 12, 2011 Report Posted October 12, 2011 well strut body diameter i would assume is the same so you would be able to, however you'd have to ditch them away once they are welded on? Why don't you get some lowered springs instead?
SebringRS Posted October 12, 2011 Author Report Posted October 12, 2011 Thats what i've got too go on at the moment, but MOT man said that the front shock absorbers f**ked, so thought of coilovers, i'd only end up putting coilovers on anyway later on May aswell do it now
mk1mexico Posted October 12, 2011 Report Posted October 12, 2011 Disc brakes wont go on drum braked struts so what you gonna do when you have money for brakes? youll have to buy another set of coilovers
Andrade Posted October 12, 2011 Report Posted October 12, 2011 .i'm assuming having money for discs as in buying disc brake struts in my reply
SebringRS Posted October 12, 2011 Author Report Posted October 12, 2011 Disc brakes wont go on drum braked struts so what you gonna do when you have money for brakes? youll have to buy another set of coilovers Might have to keep it off the road for a while then, or wait til i have everything before taking these off It passed the MOT (just), so nothing major, it won't be used much over winter anyhow, so may aswell save up Thanks anyway
