Reply to "Front drum to disc conversion."

I think before I throw in the towel, I'm going to see if I can get some info on these. At first glance, it looks like they might work. And the new spindle eliminating the extra caliper bracket might help offset the increased weight of the cast hub.

I was all excited when I saw the silver calipers, thinking they might be aluminum. Alas, no.

FWIW, This same set-up, minus the spindles, is sold to convert disc brake Ghias to 5x205, so I'm assuming it's what we're talking about above. Another plus is that they're Rabbit calipers, so any O'PepBoysCheckerAutozone will sell pads.

ETA: These may not be the zero offset discs. The ones that definitely are are 71lbs, so 35/side. No go.
