Hi all. I'm just after some advise. I have heard that you can fit complete torana stub, disc and caliper set to HR cross member. If anyone can help will be much appreciated.
Want to know:
- What model Torana to use
- Which steering arms to use (Torana/HR)

DON'T use LC/LJ or you will end up in all sorts of offset trouble (I did) they pull the wheels in too far, I currently have LH/LX Discs fitted to CRS drop spindles (LH/LX stubs will fit). Not sure which steering arms though, probably HR.

Nope, but it helps when lowering the car. I think HQ spindles give a lower ride, not sure about the caliper mounts though. Most pre-commodore stuff is a bolt up fit to get all sorts of combos for different characteristics.

I put LJ dics and calipers on HR stubs and they line up perfectly, i believe they move the track it slightly but i cant confirm as i have updated to commo discs.
