Rear disc on LC but from tiburon (114 bolt pattern)

[japakos]

Today I got my new rims and my new front brake swap on my LC. The brakes were from the tiburon '99. It uses 114 bolt pattern. As I don't care about the different bolt pattern (114 front, 100 rear), I am planning to use the same procedure to the rear braking system. The front came out an easy job and it's a bolt-on thing which made me surprised. If the rear is the same thing then I'm going for it. Does anybody know if it is really a bolt on thing? The only problem I had was with the ABS. The front sensors are not quite in the same position as the LC. So , I'll use a little extension , a couple of screws and good luck to me. I hope not to die

for he rear you can't use the tiburon spindle,
aligment will be WAY off you could use the colt brake like it's discussed here in previous post if you can find some (4x100mm) or use the adaptors like we spoke about

I want to change the bolt pattern to the rear to 114. Isn't possible for the mechanic to fix the allignment to the rear? Or it will be too hard?

i guess you could use the tiburon hub/bearing assembly to get the 4 x 114.3mm bolt patern you'l lhave top check if the hub actually fit your LC spindles
for the adaptor it will fit
nah, the tiburon spidles asseblies are very different then those used on the accent
suspension arms attaching points are very different

Follow the writeup by Scrud, either in this forum or the Accent forum as a sticky, just dont bother changing the bolt pattern as the colt/misc mitsubishi uses the same 4x114.3 bolt pattern.
