HR ball joint front end (mine was modified by CRS as part number FE02, I disassembled the crossmember and sent the bare member to them in Castlemaine with the control arms),thebrotherj wrote:Thanks for the booster tips - I have the horrid plastic unit from the VS and I am sure it won't clear. I just realised I typed VP up there, the car I wrecked was in fact a VS Wagon. Which was handy cos being a bench seat car, it also provided the handbrake setup with the lever beside the driver's seat... which I might install also.
Can you tell me - what CRS kit are you referring too? I think I'd head down the path of HR front end then ask CRS or someone else to supply the correct stub axle to allow me to run the VS discs. Thanks for the info.
Front mount rack and pinion kit (CRS part number RP01HRKIT, a bolt up job once CRS had modded the crossmember),
Modified HR stubs (mine were modified by CRS as part number SA11, bolt up job using Commodore bearings),
Commodore to Holden disk kit (CRS part number DB010, bolt up job),
26P rims from a VP Berlina, VP and VR with ABS/IRS, VT Aclaim V6 and VQ Statey Series 1 (the standard 43P Commodore rims foul on the tie-rod ends),
VN/VP/VR/VS rotors, calipers and hoses. Experience in the wreckers shows VN-VS are very similar, though some small changes amongst the models and different options per car. I ended up with the finned alloy front caliper versions,
VP LSD narrowed and re-bracket by V6 Conversions (couriered the diff to them in Moree, they couriered it back),
HR disk brake front end "brake hose spring thingies" (Rare Spares part BP1005),
Gemini booster (PBR VH151). There are a couple of You-and-I boosters, you want the one that has a non-angle-mounted master (from memory TF/TG were angled). This gives the easy-to-mount bracketry. The Gemini pushrod was lengthened by Hoppers Stoppers to suit the Foulcan booster. When the Gemini pushrod is correctly lengthened it is placed into the booster on top of the reaction disc. The pushrod should stick-up above the flat face of the booster by 1.5mm for correct pre-load.
XA/B/C Falcon dual-circuit master (PBR part number P6258a).
Cheers,
Harv
