C303 disc brake conversion

[pee]

do you have a straight hole or with a thread to screw columns in?
by looking at the link in ex garage forum in these 2 pictures it' s clear the process...

6 holes with thread, and hexagon bolts from inside

those 2 smaller holes with threads are for "centering" the disc - and in picture ther is spacer bolted... (not needed there)

thank you!
i ve just received an email back fro offivaruste they say they have a new bolt on kit for a disc conversion on going that will be available in 2 - 3 weeks...i' ll wait to see it before doing anything!
Does anyone of you know anything about it?

Yes, I know that, but it's a product development, so I will not tell, sorry.

This means that Pauli doesn't have a glue what is happening there (he works for offivaruste)

here i am ! just finished sand blasting and priming every single part of the axles!
i think i' ll wait to see what' s this new product!
thanks pauli i am just curios about it!!!
can you eventually tell me if in the main time i can have the hubs machined and the new holes drilled for my 16 inch wheels? i suppose it's still needed.

i am trying also to calculate which inclination i need to give to the flat part where the leaf spring lies on on the axles looking at the original patrol axles...it seems to me something around 22 23 degrees fron and rear...

did anyone of you make something particular on volvo's to adapt them on the patrol?
Ciao have a nice day!

Hi ravio,
I have the 'feeling' that those new under construction disc brakes are supposed to fit regular 15" rims with original volvo bolt pattern

here some pics of the c303 as i founded it

another one and all axles dismounted sand blasted and primed.
