calebz Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 If you want disc brakes, you get the stuff from a turbo car if your car is 4wd, get the stuff from a 4wd car if your car is 2wd, get the stuff from a 2wd car Yes, there are 2wd turbo XTs, sedans, and wagons.. probably coupes as well, but I have never seen one.

lastchance Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Do it dude...It's way worth it. I've noticed a ton of people have been performing this swap so many of the rear discs out in the yards may already be gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baccaruda Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 hello.. check my thread in marketplace; i just lowered the price to $50 because I have had them for a while and got impatient to get rid of them (and other stuff) and organize my garage.. good timing on your part! if you would like to buy them i'd need your zip code for a shipping quote. thanks!

555Ron Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Hmm, i have an 87 Loyale 2wd. What sort of cars can be donors (wagons? XT's?, XT6's?, SVX's?), what parts do i need, and how much work is it to get the handbrake cable on the rear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 The XT6 will not work for yours unless you are doing the 5 lug swap, complete. Any EA82 2wd rear disc brakes will work, but none came with a rear e-brake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
