MX6 to MX3 brake swap?

Post by pelado »

Ok, I've searched the archives and found nothing on this issue.<P>Has anyone investigated the feasibility of swapping 93 or later MX-6/626/ProbeGT brakes to an MX-3? <P>I know the 6'ers are 5 lugs vs. 4 for the 3. Just checking to see if anyone with easy access to a junk yard has measured the MX-3 for this fit.

I believe MX-6 brakes are bigger, both front and rear. Also the later MX-6 16" wheels would then work, making for a relatively cheap larger wheel swap.
