mrbigtanker Posted January 4, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2021 Untitled by raymond medeiros, on Flickr Untitled by raymond medeiros, on Flickr Taka and John helped with some with install and machining of the Techno Toy front suspension and Micro Wilwood brake kit. There stuff is ok but does not fit worth a shit if you ask me. We had to machine the brake caliper brackets to fit the knuckle because they hit and some other stuff. Was not a direct bolt on that's for sure. Not done and this was all the pics I took. 3 Link to comment
thisismatt Posted January 4, 2021 Report Share Posted January 4, 2021 Dude. lol This brake kit will require swapping the front strut casings from side to side, putting the calipers on the front side of the vehicle for clearance of steering components 1 1 Link to comment

mrbigtanker Posted January 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2021 Untitled by raymond medeiros, on Flickr Untitled by raymond medeiros, on Flickr Just need to bleed the brakes and get alignment. Fits pretty good, we made some mods to make it all work on RHD. And as for putting brakes on front side of Rotor that would be a big negative. Made it work with no issues. 3 Link to comment

Yes it works angle goes outward instead of inward, misses by 1-1/2' no problem. We worked the calipers bracket so not to flip the struts as Techno boys suggest and moved the spacers around for clearance. Works like a charm. 2 1 Link to comment

I know because my wagon actually had a LHD link, and it would not align until I found a proper RHD one. I am generally confused on that one.. Link to comment

If it was all stock then yes I’m sure it won’t work, however mines is drilled out for the techno toy tie rods. 1 Link to comment
