280mm brakes (CALIPER QUESTION)

Post by chrisjames »

This isnt another "how do I convert to 280mm brakes" thread
I was wondering if anyone had successfully used the calipers along with the carriers before on a 6n2 polo.

I really havnt looked into this much so forgive my ignorance. I thought I would fire out the question on here though.

I think the problems lies with brake line connections etc.

Thanks

Chris

16V/GTI calipers will work fine with G60 280mm carriers mate.
