Here is the information I have.. Just did a bit of research, this is a interesting way to go....... This is the process from the van above he used.


First step was to sort out some bigger wheels to fit bigger brakes, now you simply can NOT buy bigger wheels for CF Bedfords any more, the stud pattern is essentially a pain in the ass & extremely hard to deal with.

Studs removed, hubs drilled to six stud on the same PCD, then adaptors used to convert to the typical Jap 4wd/commercial stud pattern.

Now that we had some room for bigger brakes (stock wheels were 14") we could go on the hunt for something that would work.

After a HUGE amount of time was wasted on people that simply didn't respond to emails or return ph calls etc (because it just got too hard for them) we purchased a set of brake rotors.

They are the 13" two piece units, this allowed me to design custom hats to suit the Bedford hubs & have these & the caliper mounts machined just around the corner.
Z32 300ZX TT front brake calipers were overhauled & painted then the whole lot was slapped on:

Murray (McQuoid Engineering) who does the HQ disc brake conversion is now working on another (bigger) kit. I think the HQ are 9 or 10" with single pot callipers but is making up a bigger set using commodore discs with twin pot callipers .
He's going to be using my old front of the van (my trailer van) to set up a display with the HQ and bigger set up and the power steering kit he has designed. I have photo of the power steering kit am just waiting on a price before i post anymore details
