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

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