Hi,

I thought I had asked this before but couldn't find the post. Did a search and came up with zilch.

I recently bought Cm stubs and rotors of eBay $50 (thinking I wouldn't win it). To put these on my Abody (Vc valiant). What will I need?

Can I use the current upper and lower control arms?
I currently have the stock wheels, guessing I will need new ones?
Do I need to install a booster? I have one that I can get a recondition done, if so I'll get all the new piping.
I will need a proportioning valve?
Will also get new callipers, hoses, pads, bearings.
Anyone have a suggestion on suitable callipers?

Here is a link
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/270807304128 ... _500wt_898

I would be pretty happy if I could get the whole swap done for less than $500, but I can spend more.

Thankyou! I really do appreciate it.

Mate, most of the blokes on here are Yanks, and they probably don't know a CM from a VK Commodore.
They are champions on their cars but for a lot of them our differences have them tossed.

If an Aussie sees it and knows you'll be sweet, but you may have to check on an Aussie site to get the facts.
Sorry I can't help you.
Good luck with it. :wink:

Thanks!

Will be taking them to someone in a few days when they arrive, hopefully all is well and I can just get some brand new calipers and lines and I'll be sweet!

I resemble that remark… Some days I don’t know my ass from my elbow as well.

Pure 100% blue blooded Yankee, and OZ lingo clueless.

LOL

Yeah, not having a go at you blokes - just telling him to look in his own backyard.
