[ratzcar]

the disks i have are a hub type

i am using 17 inch multi fit rims so 5 stud on the front is OK

and what other things do i need

thanks if you can help

I believe the bearings are the same for Ford as well as Datsun - have a look at a set at your local parts retailer.

What calipers are you wanting to use?

thanks do you use a modified seal or standard nissan

i will use hylux calipers but extend the connecting points

or is there other calipers i can use?

sorry for the late reply been busy at work

but today my car came to life started after 2 years

all my wiring done and it started first pop

regards

I'd compare both types of seal, but I dare say they will be the same anyway.

You don't need to mod the Hilux/Landcruiser calipers as they are a direct bolt on to the Zed strut.

Try to get the later LN106 caliper too

Hi guys,

have a look at this site.  I reckon they look pretty good and would pull up on a dime.

ZZZ8 has that Hoppers Stopper kit on the front of his Zed.

Horrible sliding 2 spot caliper isn't great...

 

The 4 spot Hilux/landcruiser caliper with Nissan S13 or Peugoet 504/505 rotor is the go
