Ford Fiesta Mk6 Rear Brakes

[cpfcwill]

Hello, On my 2004 Ford Fiesta 1.4 Flame I have standard Ford disc brakes at the front and standard Ford drum brakes at the rear.

Can i get standard Ford rear disc brakes or would it just be easier to upgrade both of them?

Cheers

So do you think i'd have to change the whole rear axle to a ST axle then get the disc brakes?

no the hubs/stub axles bolt straight onto your current axle, no drilling or anything. you will need the handbrake cable and brake hoses for an st ideally but you can get away with bits from a focus.

brake hoses should be about £15 and the complete handbrake assembly will be about £35.
