Yes Transit vented discs and 4 pot calipers will bolt to the 6 stud/bolt hub without any mods
as where the falcon disc will not as it has its own hub and is 5x114.3 pcd
so you do not have the option of using the falcon discs (I forgot you had 6 stud) but you can use the transit vented discs and 4 pot caliper like the ones in pic #2 these were originally fitted to 6 stud/bolt hubs (see pic below)

The vented and solid discs share the same offset and mounting bolt pcd

Does anybody know if the Mark 2 front axle in a dual rear Transit comes standard with 4 pot calipers?
1973 drw; Falcon 250 c.i.; 12v fuel pump; belt-driven water pump & fan replaced with 12v water pump & two 12" fans; T5 gearbox; Mark II front discs.

What, YES you know or YES it does :lol:

Or both of course :lol:
Even if you don't need it, grab it.
The minute you do need it, it'll be gone.
