Can i put a 182 Rear axel on my Dci?

[DamoWales]

Would a 182 rear axel fit onto my DCi ?

Its same model just wanting to know if it will fit and would it be costly to do by a garage!

Thanks

You'd have to get some ABS rings made up for the discs sadly, that goes for the DCI100 and 1.6 16v ones aswell.

Ahhh gay!

PM Giles he has experience in this, it woulnt be too much trouble getting some rings made up though. Ive seen it done before. Although some of the dci's did come with disk brakes.

On the Ph3 1.6 which had the disc rear axle fitted as standard does that use a recalibrated ABS system to take into account the increased number of splines on the ABS ring or are the discs for it fitted with ABS rings with less splines?

And as the ABS system is standalone is it not a possibility to swap the ABS computer/control block from a model originally fitted with rear discs to overcome the problem?

Bit of effort for little gain though.

The cars with rear disks have a differen ABS computer so either use one of them (forget that) or have some new rings made up with the right amount of teeth there the only reasonable option or else bin the ABS.

if you get a complete rear axle surely its a straight swap??

Sadly not mate, the ABS is totally different, even the type of ring.
