Right my entire braking system at the mo is fcuked so ive decided to uprate to cossie brakes all round ! ive got everything i need ecpet some extra servo parts which i can get from the scrappy and my calipers !
where can i get re-con cossie calipers from !? and how much im looking everywhere to find them at the best price so if u can help out that would be kewl !!

[FezzR]

just out of interest when u say u have everything part from servo bits and calipers what do u have?
do u have adapter brackets?

i know burton power suply recon calipers

what made u go for cossie not st170? imo would be a better route

HTH

[MadcatCraig]

usually about £150 form local motor factors but thats on an exchange basis and the callipers are like rocking horse s**t so they usually ask for yours and send them away to get re conditioned.

ford will do you recon ones for about £200 a side and new ones are stupid £££

if you havent got any to exchange your gonna be looking at easily £300 for recon ones non exchange

£175+pp inc disks and pads

well the calipers arnt a straight fit so u either use washers and plz dont, or u use a metal bracket. if it was me then id sell the bits on and go for st170s all depends on what u can get ur hands on and at what price,
worth a chat with gadget

[FezzyMK3.5]

nah im not selling it all now ! i just need sumwhere to buy the remaining calipers ! nah i dnt have a brakcet made up yet as far as ive heard u can just use the washer no1 seems to have had a problem with them so far ! if not where can i get the bracket from !?
also can sum1 actually tell me of a place to buy the calipers !?

[TJ]

Mark, buy those ones off reggie, it cant hurt to have the disks and pads ready if you need to replace them in the future, plus its better to use new disks and pads, and that aint a bad price mate!!

I love mine, and it werent no where near as bad as i thought it would be to fit!!

When you do it gimme a shout, it wont take long at all!

[FezzyMK3.5]

m8 i already have brand new discs and pads tho ! and they are sierra cossie ones so will the esc cos ones fit !? also reggie are they 2nd hand or re-con !!!
Also can ppl please let me know of places that sell these calipers i cant seem to get them anyway and need them very urgently !!
Does anyone know of a place that re-cons calipers if so how much and also does anyway know of a DIY re-con kit !!?
Help would be very much appreciated !
and cheers TJ will give u a shout !

[FezzR]

burton powers recons require exchange and id imagine almost all will. might be worth seeing what the sur charge is as u could just let them keep the sur-charge.

and u can get recon kits from ford well i know most of them u can get em for just gonna check on microcat for u

[FezzyMK3.5]

yea FezzR i rang burton and they are excahnge only which is not much use owning a fiesta lol !
Yea if u could check on microcat that would be ace m8 !!

[TJ]

Mark PM!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MOONDUST FRST]

I got my calipers, discs and pads for £150 then i reconned them myself using the ford kit and painted them all up with that foiliatec stuff. Also used new pads as a matter of course
BTW i used the washers to space the bracket out and providing you use extended high tensile steel bolts and torque them up right it will be absolutely fine mate

[FezzyMK3.5]

im on to it !

[FezzyMK3.5]

moondust do ford sell a DIY re-con kit then if so how much !?

[Gadget]

You have p mail

[TJ]

Gadge can you pm me, as mark is in work!

And i'll let him know.

[MOONDUST FRST]

Yes ford sell the new seals for the calipers in a kit, cant remember cost though dont think they were dirt cheap but still worth doing defo

[jonzy@sw-cc.com]

Im assuming that the cossie conversion for the mk3 would be the same for the mk4 fiesta?

[jonzy@sw-cc.com]

Ive looked at the V6 mondy conversions too and its just a question of availability of parts. Escort 4x4 parts seem to more readily available over the mondy v6 stuff.

By the looks of that post the hub mountings should be the same on the mk3/4's
