Is it possible to put disco front brakes on the rear axle. i was thinking of doing this because my calipers keep letting the pads slip down and cut into the disc. I've had 3 calipers do this now and i was thinking the fronts have the pins going through the pads.
Any info is GOOD. also any advice on different non standard calipers and pads.

Thanks

rear calipers are smaller for a reason,google rtc5889 and rtc5890 for ealier calipers or stc1264 and stc1265 for later

I was wondering if there were any up-rated brakes that could be used? as i'm turning the car into a tray back with a full roll cage.

We guessed that's where they would be.
