These arrived today from Lextreme, fantastic service once again:banana: They are 1995 onwards LS400 calipers and discs 315mm.
This is a trail fit. The dust sheld at the back of the disk is going to have to come off or be modded. The wheels clear the new calipers, but the calipers are going to need a gentle meeting with Mr. Grinder to make them fit the hubs, they only need about 5 or 6mm shaved off in an area where there is alot of metal, so can't see it being an issue.
Next to the old disc they look HUGE
Old brakes fitted
New ones
A little closer:
And the clearence between the caliper and wheel
Now going to grind off what's needed, spray them black (unless someone has a good suggestion on another colour) then fit with braided lines all round and DOT 5.1 fluid.
