Rear Disc Brake Conversion Escort


I was going to fit a disc brake rear end to my MK1 Eski but cannot get them to fit under Twin Cam steel wheels  so had to decide which I would prefer Disc brakes or Steel wheels, I flew to the UK to get the wheels so they kind of won!
 
I have a complete setup for the rear of an english axle, the caliper brackets and spacers were purchased from another forum member and are top quality,
 
There are 2 brand new non genuine Audi discs (same pcd as escort)
 
There are 4 calipers, 2 left and 2 right
 
There is a complete handbrake cable from donor vehicle (skyline).
 
These will fit under 13" alloy wheels but not steel wheels,
 
There are 2 high tensile bolts missing from the kit but the bolt size is listed,
 
The axles need to be turned down to fit inside the disc, or you can use 2 piece axles from Tran X in the UK as in the pictures,
 
The handbrake cables will need to be modified to suit I guess,
 
One of the calipers has been ground to attempt to fit under the rims and one of the caliper slide brackets is cracked (but there are two sets of both!)
 
Located on the Central Coast can pick up from Hornsby, Gosford or the Hunter Valley,
 
Looking for $450.00

    I also have an intercooler from a Sierra Cosworth with modified mounts
     
    and a rebuilt t3 oil cooled turbo if anyone is interested.
     
    cheers
