No mate - I spoke to Machine 7 about m/cylinder. I did replace the original one a few yrs back. They said the new m/cylinder should already be ok for discs etc....
Im gonna give it a few miles road test sometime and check that theres no binding. If it binds then a new one will go on. :wink:

Def worth doing as if it binds, it will cause too much heat with will fook up the whole kit as the ally will warp as will the discs and the bearings will get damaged etc....
 
ive done a few miles since i fitted them on the old m/cylinder, hope it aint done any damage :shock:

I take it the brakes are alot better now i would like to know as im going to do the conversion soon as the original wide 5 set up on my van are shite even though they are new.Look very nice to are they 14 or 15 inch versions
Cheers
 
Look like the only difference between the 14" and 15" are the calipers. am i right cos your calipers look different to mine.
