don`t think there`s that many people here who have a money tree to be able to afford them ;-)

Make em yourself

easy enough to fabricate from 2nd hand stuff from the wreckers & whip up a billett alloy rear hub for it easy-peasy

i used to make alloy rear hubs, but only stock looking ones,,,been meaning to set up for a disc flange on the back of the next set i machine up tho

I've got spare discs floating around here for the front of a car. How does the handbrrake usually connect up with discs?
I'm not going to do a conversion, but I wondered if it can be done.

I'm going to build my own, with a hydro hand brake on a seperate system. Similar to rally cars. I plan to use a motorcycle rotor, but would like to know what diameter the KAD ones are. I think a 6-8" -1/4" rotor will do.

I believe the KAD disks have a cable hook up as well, which I won't be able find I don't think.

There are a few people I have emailed, but no replies yet.

TheMiniMan- Do you know the dimensions off hand for the inner cavity where the bearings sit? I still have to press out the bearing on my hubs, but if I could just get the dimensions, that would save a little time.
