Brake calipers

[caprixpack]

Ok, so when I bought the puma I was given a boot load of spares. On amongst was a set of what appears to be the later 258mm calipers and carriers. With my millennium being early 2000 I'm assuming it's using the 240mm disc and caliper setup.
Anyway I was wondering if it's just a case of swapping the calipers and carriers over then running the 258mm disc and corresponding pads?

Yep. It's a straight swap from the early to late.

Hi.
You did not mention discs. If you need to buy new discs and pads I would consider Focus 170 ST discs and Mondeo Mk2 Calipers. I have done this and the brakes are vastly superior. It comes down to what you want...... Money V braking. A straight swap apart from open up the calliper mounting bolt holes. I am not that sure on wheel clearance though as I run 17" wheels.

Regards,
Richard.

To be honest I'm only considering doing it because I have the calipers already.
