MK6 brake upgrades.

[winterheating]

mk6 FWD 2000 non ABS
i'm thinking of upgrading my rears to the disc you get on the mk7, can'y be to hard can it

and also want to upgrade the fronts to something big, but will that mean i would have to change whole hub from something else

[Guy88]

think you would need a rear axle, that would be easiest

Would like to do it to mine but i got prop problems then aswell

[winterheating]

so id need full axle the full hand brake cable, and a bit of altering the brake pipes, and thats it.

great.

This will be an interesting one

i wonder how much better discs all round are on the MK7's, i think the transit brakes are pretty good anyway.
