Big Brakes - Questions!

bankz5152 · Nov 12, 2020

Going to be installing a set of LOFs big brakes on my 110 soon, which I happy doing.

Though is it worth upgrading the rear brakes as well? I was thinking of using my current front discs and calipers on the rear with an adaptor.

Is it worth doing or best just to leave as is?

Interested either way!

What's up with the old ones, why are you upgrading?

Then you'll want to increase the effort from the rear too, IMHO

Get the kit manufactruers advice on brake balance and follow it. A brake upgrade should be all four plus suspension so you get a complete matched package. You can create a very dangerous vehicle if you get this wrong and they must have done tests and worked out the right balance and set up.

Part of the reason yes. Fairly large power upgrade requires bigger brakes, not to mention shes fairly heavy.

Suspension has been done and consists of OME HD springs on the front, Medium on the rear. Koni HT Raid dampers set fairly firm and a front anti roll bar.

You can get adapters to fit the standard 4 pot calipers on the rear.
