Well mine is
Peugeot 405 rear disc
Rallye Design ally bracket
Sierra non vented calipers
xr4x4 handbrake cable
Mintex 1144 pads
Dont need to tell you Gaz how well my brakes work now do I ?
Oh and you will need an inline bias valve to turn rear brakes down !

I have found them on the mainland or over there LOL for £25 each 2nd hand best I can get ?
but how much are the brackers for them and do you need the original carrier brackets Dave ?
do the 405 disks fit straight on or do they need turned down a bit, are they the ones from a 88-96 1.8 1.9 ?
Cheers

Brackets from RD are £70 (nice bit of kit though)
You will need caliper carrier bracket
405 disc supplied by RD does not need machining but flange on halfshaft needs to be turned down apprx 1mm
And you will need to fit longer rear wheel studs
Thats about it realy
