    (Borrow) FL hub carrier

    I need to borrow a facelift hub carrier.

    Or if any one has a tech drawing of one?

    Will need it for 2 weeks approx and will pay freight both ways.

    What do you want it for?

    I have one, but I am so lazy that you will have to come pick it up.

    i presume it is something to do with brake calipers, it usually is.

    i have pictures and some dimensions on a drawing somewhere, if you tell us what dimension you want i might be able to help.

    Bye for Now!

    you can fit standard evo brembo's calipers to a pre facelift hub carrier but you have to get much bigger disks 340mm or 360mm (not the standard evo 320mm) then get some bracket made up to mount the calipers to the carriers

    The larger disks moves the calipers far enough away from the original mounting point to get a bracket in between the caliper bolt hole and carrier bolt hole. But then you have to have bigger wheels 18" min with the same standard evo offset.

    there was a guy on here and then on ebay selling a kit that included the disks and brackets (calipers not included) for about £300 i think.

    unfortunately using brackets and adaptors for brakes is illegal. Looking at other options.

    you can get them certed for it, but thats an extra 350$

    I suppose that is logical from a safety point of view, so the loacal muppet does make a caliper bracket out of wood or something like that.

    but still a bit harsh.
