Default BA Rear disc conversion question
Hi there,
finally got around to buying a complete falcon ute diff to do the rear brake conversion on my XJ.
Just wondering if those who have done it recall the thickness of the 2x backing plate spacers?
Any help would be appreciated
Andy

Gojeep. Converting to discs using EA falcon parts. That's the write up the measurements are in. Even has a diagram showing the measurements.

Its because Marcus has two conversions on his website.
An EA and a BA conversion.

The BA does not show dimensions of the spacer.
The EA conversion does. The spacer is 10mm.

http://gojeep.willyshotrod.com/HowtoRearDiscs1.htm

Not sure on the differences between the two setups.
For my rear disc conversion, i used the ZJ setup. It was cheap and easy to do and ive had perfect rear brakes ever since. No spacers and it also meant i could keep my ABS intact, so a win win situation.

The write up for my conversion is on my VSB14 thread in the XJ section.

Cheers,
