Rite im currently uprgrading the brakes on my fiesta, ive gone for a rear disc conversion and now need sum sierra cossie 4x4 rear calipers for this ! Im also going to upgrade the fronts again using the cossie calipers if i can !
Can anyone tell me if its worth getting sum new DOT4 brake fluid ?
Also can sum give me a rough idea of a good price on the cossie calipers front and back ! a 2nd hand price and a re-con price ? ive seen re-con for £300 for all 4 is this anygood !?

ive seen recon Cossie fronts go for, £140- 170 max.
Rear ones a bit lower, maybe a little over a 100, i payed 20 quid for my rear ones, from K+L Scrappy's just up the road from GMH m8. I know them quite well. Dot 4 fluid will do the job fine.
