Brakes

Post by tony_de_whitt »

Hello

Simple question

Will my t3 stock Syncro brakes (which I have in a box spare)

Fit directly into my 2wd doka??

I’m waiting for a brake rebuild kit and was thinking of using them interim??

Thanks in advance

Sorry

Just to clarify

You say front pads

Are calipers interchangeable??

They look very similar

Front calipers and pads are interchangeable - the discs are 2WD / Syncro specific.

callipers and carriers are the same, but the short fixed pipe and bracket are different as are the flexi pipes as they are routed differently and the discs are different
