October 15, 201214 yr #21 Ok then that's slightly annoying considering they were suppose to be off a FG GT-P ill try and reverse the mounts tonight but the bolts lined up but where the struts are machined out they didn't fit on and the rears were off centre and the calliper pressed up against the disk when it was tightened! Im running out of posts today! I have 4 left and id really like to get this sorted tonight as I fly away to work in the next few days for 2 months!
October 15, 201214 yr #22 Picture of the 4 pot is for the rear left. Ill go take some photos of mine, only put them on last week.Also what do you mean the rears are off center? Edited October 15, 201214 yr by winstor
October 15, 201214 yr #23 Righto then, but when they were bolted on they seemed to press up against the inside of the disk.... I always thought the bleed nipples sit at the top? Yes some pictures would be handy. And im down in Rockingham (Perth) if that's not too far away?
October 15, 201214 yr #24 Yeh bleed nipples sit up top. Could be the brake pad pushing on the disc if the pistons havent been pushed back in properly?Excuse the dirt lol.Front LeftRear Left
October 15, 201214 yr #25 ill go see if the piston has been pushed back fully now but I wont be able to test fit until atlest tomorrow arvo when I get access to a hoist. ill have to try and change the brackets, so I pretty much swap the left to the right?how do you like them??? pull up okay? lolThanks heaps for your help, without this id be screwed!!
October 15, 201214 yr #26 Yeh, should be some info about it in this section.http://www.fordxr6tu...brembos-fit-fg/http://www.fordxr6tu...-brembos-to-bf/http://www.fordforum....php?t=11357871http://www.fordforum....php?t=11372912http://www.fordforum....php?t=11370300http://www.fordforum....php?t=11374046 Edited October 15, 201214 yr by Dagabond
October 15, 201214 yr #27 Okay so turns out the ones I brought are off a BA-BF (6 pots) so the brackets are the same, do I just switch the brackets around or do I have to change the cross over pipe as well?It seems to be a long time since anyone posted on this! Apparently I have brought some brembos off a BA-BF thinking they were off a FG GT-P and im trying to put them onto a FG sedan, do I just swap the mounting brackets around? or do I have to change the cross over pipes? I already have the brake hoses.hmmm ill have to give it a shot tomorrow morning! Fingers crossed it works! I suppose the brake hoses will be off a BA-BF too then
August 17, 201313 yr #28 So with 4pot brembo front's from a FG when I fit them to a BA all I need to do is switch the brackets and change the nipple and pipes from top to bottom and because the pistons are the same size they will be fine yes
