He's up early so something's up. I was perfectly happy sleeping with my head on a bookshelf. He's been packing tools and cable ties in a back pack so I reckon we're off to pick up a new mobile kennel for me. Great we're off for a walk. Poo count 1. First mode of transport. Bader-matic for the win.

Hello Autoshiters, I'm stuck in a quandary, I want to take the non-self adjusting drum brakes of my rust bucket and replace them with disc brakes front and back. "But why do you want to do this?" I hear you say, well I've only gone and fitted a rover 3.5 V8 with a Renault UN1 trans-axle gearbox to it so stopping is quite important. I have in the past done this conversion but with an off the shelf made for that model of car kit. There is however no off the shelf kit for the H van. So my question is what do I need to measure/considered/know to order the correct set of discs calipers and associated box of OEM crap. I have rung around a few places but all are less than interested in helping and know almost nothing about the parts they sell. I've attached some pics of what is there for your enjoyment.
