waynocrano Bronze Donating Members 3 Member For: 7y 4m Posted 05/04/17 06:32 AM Share Posted 05/04/17 06:32 AM (edited) hi fullas I'm running 4 spot brembos and want to up grade to 6 spot on my bf I see on line plenty of fg conversions, does the bf need different mounting brackets to fg as the caliper on bf is front mounted and fg is rear mount? Is there traps for young players to watch for? any help or advice will be much appreciated Waynocrano Edited 05/04/17 06:41 AM by waynocrano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Luke, I'll be installing my Brembo's soon. Could you please tell me which way the small piston is supposed to face. Is it the lead piston for forward travel? Or do it have it arse about face?

Small piston on the rotor entry and big on the exit. Ensure the pads lead into the roto from the entry side. More progressive action and less chance of chatter. Keen for pics of 385's and associated bits. (make two set of spacers kthnxby) Edited 28/04/17 06:56 AM by Ralph Wiggum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
