Thank you for posting this, did you have any problems with the original hoses attaching to upgraded calipers?
@samwel699 ай бұрын
Nope the v70 brake hoses work fine with the xc90 calipers 👍

My 2005 xc70 is the same and I'm wanting to do the same up grade. What year xc90 calipers and rotors should I get??
@samwel694 ай бұрын
They are just mk1 xc90 2002-2012, you just have to make sure you buy the 336mm discs and caliper to suit, if you go on ebay then are usually listed as 336mm calipers.

Hi, Have a question. I am thinking about uppgrading my s60 2,5t brakes to R brakes from s60R/v70R (brembo). How is it to do this uppgrade? Is it as you say? only drill up the bolt holes to 40mm and thats it you need to thread those holes? bolt on everything? or what more you need to do?
@samwel6910 ай бұрын
I'm pretty sure the v70r brembo's are a direct bolt on, no modifications needed

@@samwel69maybe you only need about 15mm wheel spacers for more clearance between rim and brembo shoe
