Hi
I am running sierra rear uprights and 13" wheels (split rims).
I know that Sierra rear calipers will just about squeeze in but would prefer a more traditional caliper type that doesn't travel so there' s
no risk of jamming on rails.
Does anyone know what disc/caliper combination mightfit within a 13" wheel please.
I don't need a handbrake (it's a sprint car)
Many thanks
Gavin
I'd have a look at the Willwood powerlite caliper, think they get inside a 13inch rim.
If anything traditional opposed piston callipers are just as likely to give problems with sticking pads or seized pistons.
I'm running bendix rear calipers from 205/106 gti with 240mm escort discs (high offset version) on my hillclimb locost. The piston size is much better suited than the sierra one. I had some brackets waterjet cut to suit.
Thanks for your help so far
Phelpsa - do you have any photos of your set up per chance?
