just a quickie.

what is it i need to go from 8.4 down to 7.5 discs and calipers.

Obviously "s" calipers and the "s" discs. But is that it as i already have discs on th front?

Will i need drive flanges aswell or do they come with discs when you buy them new?

i am after a cheapish conversion and am watching some "s" calipers that need a refurb!!

cheers

Well, that's it really. Flanges, discs, disc to flange screws (very different to 8.4" ones) calipers and splash shields if you want them. New caliper retaining bolts would be a good idea. Oh, and pads with retainers obviously and new split pins for the CV!
