StuT Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Quick quiz, will my 13 inch ford wheels fit over a Austin Princess 4 pot brake upgrade? Changing calipers only Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 13" hotwires fit over princess calipers if that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuT Posted May 18, 2014 Author Share Posted May 18, 2014 Thanks Rookie, did you need to do anything else to get them. To work right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 I haven't done it myself, but it was a friend of mine. I don't think he had to mod anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillman1 Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Yea standard 13s will fit over them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoKer Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 pretty much "the" brake upgrade of the era/prescribed to most Avenger addicts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuT Posted May 21, 2014 Author Share Posted May 21, 2014 Did quick mock up with calipers on. All seemed good just need to go get calipers serviced and 2 to 1 piping made. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-W-G Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Might want to look into tx3 laser i think ke or kf vented rotors if your going vented. Capri ones are well and good but leave a lip on the pad. The laser ones are 260mm and take up the whole pad area and dont need any mods to the hub or caliper mounts so they just fit inside a 13inch rim!

I have the v6 mark 1 hubs which have a bigger deeper hat shape. Same as oz cortina. Not same as the most capri's escorts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-W-G Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Hmm v6 mark 1 zypher? Cortina? Escort? if the hat is abit bigger there is also bmw e30 rotors but they need abit of machining Im guessing that's a bit of a miss match bearing job? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivaspeed Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Depends what you're fitting them too, but generally 13s will do. On my Viva I had to grind a bit off the caliper to clear 13s on Princess 4 pots, but I think they mount further out than on Fords. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
