Ucf11/21 Brake upgrade question

[Cel51r]

Hey there all...

i have a UCF11 celsior and im looking at putting the 4pot UCF21 calipers and disc onto my celsior

now my problem is, ive been told i need to change the bottom ball joint to make this work??

has anybody done this conversion before and is it true that the balljoint has to be changed and anything else i need to know

thanks
Ed

Yeah, you need to change the ball joints, and you should get an alignment after doing it.

Hey there mate, thanks for that...

is that the only thing that needs to be changed?

thanks

[Mr.Phreak]

From memory, other than the obvious calipers, rotors, pads etc etc

UCF11 vs UCF21

i noticed you live on the central coast........ i live in gosford,
what about you ?
... i drive a 1998 LS400 with bilstien shocks....
... i don't know how to go about fitting the 4 spots, good luck with that..... its probably a good mod if you can fit them..... my other question is why don't you just buy a UCF21 ?
... just been reading about the V-12 Toyota Century.. the motor in particular... 5 litre V-12... imagine our LS's with that motor ?.... WOO-HOO... I also didn't know that Toyota was building V-8's as early as 1964... the 'Crown Eight'... a 2.6 litre jobby... nice eh ?
see ya
