Default rear drum to disc upgrade

you could put a wanted add up for a complete rear axle assy from a turbo. i understand it is a straight swap from drum to disc. just as a cheeky aside, i have a complete setup to use in a converson, pm me for details if you want.

PM me as I know a guy in Dewsbury that may have what you need, ie a pair of rear hubs and drive shafts etc. He does mail order too.

He supplied me with a couple of front hubs at a rediculously low price.
