    Disc Brakes

    Gday All

    If anyone is interested in looking and is on facebook Able engineering have released their disc brake kit. The kit does the front and rear with solid discs,looks like the zeus kit. also comes with a new booster and master from the look of it. kit is 1275 pounds.

    Yeah, have been looking at that - looks very similar to the Zeus kit and uses custom discs which is a disadvantage of the design IMO. While I’m sure you’ll be able to get discs for the shorter term, how long are they going to support the product for? Prefer the design we went for as it has standard D3 rear discs which should be available to a long time and only requires basic machining to fit the conversion - all of which I can do myself.

    Thanks for the pics. that is a very tidy setup. the vented discs are a bonus.any problems getting to the hub filler like the zeus kit ? .

    Yes, hub filler is covered, so I sealed it off on the back and drilled and tapped another at the front - there’s a boss cast into it so it’s like factory when done - I’ve also run vents to these, You can see the black plastic tube running to the front if you look, these come out easily for filling.
