Charles Wares Brake Disk Conversion

Post by webbnuts »

Hi.

Does anyone know what discs/pads the CW brake disk conversion uses? I think I've got one on Blackie, and want to know what spares to keep hold of!

Thanks in advance,

Webbnuts.

I believe that the Series 111 kits were based on Marina/Ital. I'm not sure if they now do the Ford based kits. If you have a vented disc then its likely to be Ford.
Have you a photo, we could easily identify it then. :D

Do you know when the conversion was fitted? Have you tried asking CW - they are still trading and advertising, so they should be able to confirm for you. As suggested above, the original conversions were marina based.
