You would use the 2wd discs, but would need some faffing to fit IIRC, they are not bolt on like the 4x4 :)

Ok then with the 4x4 ones is it just a case of getting sierra/ecos calipers discs and pads and using some spacers to adj the calipers out a tad?

What other front brake set ups are about ive heard people using mondeo front brakes and rs2000?

go for the escort/serria cossie 4x4 disc and calipers, there the better ones and easy to fit , 5mm spacer needed to space the caliper away from the hubs thats it

ST150 are a straight fit, and are working well on my 2.0
