1998 T5 brake rotor size V70-XC70 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be Daire on  Sat Dec 18 13:53 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Hi, I'm planning on replacing the right side motor mount on my '98 T5. While trying to order the part I've learned that there are two different mounts available, depending on the size of your brake rotors - 288mm or 302mm. Anybody know what size the rotors on a '98 T5 are? Is suppose I could go out and remove a wheel to measure, but it's cold out, I'm lazy, etc... TIA. Daire

    My 1998 S70 T5 sedan had the smaller rotors...as does my current 1999 V70 T5. The easiest way to tell....is...if you are running 15" snow ties...you have the smaller rotors...and if you are not,,,but it looks like you have some extra clearance inside the 16 alloy rim...you have the smaller rotors. (My 2001 V70...no extra room...15" rims won't fit). To be safe, of course borrow a 15" wheel from the hords of 850 and S70 around. But you then you lose your lazy label.

      Thanks Rick. I shook off the laziness and braved the cold to measure them - 290mm or thereabouts. I'll get to that motor mount on the next saturday morning that's a bit above freezing...
