Brakes: - AP Racing brakes from V70R onto 940?

nosuchuser · Sep 11th, 2010, 15:55

errm, just wondering. So my V70R got written off, I'm intending to buy the salvage back (once they offer me a decent price the cnuts...)

I could put the pegs on my 940 with some 25mm spacers from ipd or wherever but could I somehow fashion some jiggery pokery to put my ap brakes from the R onto the 940?

Any thoughts?

yes.

i have 302 discs on my 940 , youll need some 6.3mm spacers making up to space the caliper out to suit the different disc , thats it as long your pegs will clear the calipers which sounds like they do

Thanks Dave

However, IPD in the states sell 25mm spacers for wheels but they say that the pegasus wheels will not fit on a 98 940 with those spacers. Odd.

Anyone got any thoughts on that?

If not, looks like I'll be selling 4 genuine Volvo 18" pegs at some point and the ap brakes. (unless I buy another R... mmmmmmmmmmmmmm)

maybe the offset is wrong with 25mm spacers .

griz had nebulas fitted , i can only think it must be offset related .

if by any chance you do buy it back and if by any chance they don't fit, could I have refusal on the AP's?

(if you don't ask etc...)
