Is it possible to adapt polo discs and calipers to fit a traveller?

I'm sure many people will be along with their opinions

Hi there, I have some plans from a thread I found ages ago where the guy had made a bracket that allowed the use of polo brakes. Think he used fiesta MK11 discs with them but could be wrong. I'll see if I can find it somewhere.....

yes it is but you can not use them and retain the standard minor steel wheels..

Did Sir order a can of worms?
Well just to set things jumping I've got the 9" wolesley drums,
Now don't get me wrong 7 and 8" drums actually work, and if you drive like its 1965 there shouldn't be a problem.

The Polo disc 'conversion' had some rather doubtful engineering - in the area where the discs don't quite fit the hub properly. But - it was said to work ok!
