Who has info or ideas on converting 240 brakes onto a 122? 120-130 67

posted by  someone claiming to be Alan on  Tue May 1 17:36 CST 2001 [RELATED]

I had soo much fun converting my 145's motor over to a B23F that I've turned my eyes to the rusty 122. I've fitted it with KE-jet so far, now I'm looking to stop better.

I've seen sevral cars on the volvonet.org with foot notes about the cars having 240 running gear and seen pics in the gallery with 240 master cycl's in em. I talked briefly with a guy in Canada that had done it to his 122. The rear is not so much of a problem, I can weld on the needed mounts to a 240 rear end. Now that I've set my self to doing it, I need any and all info I can get.

I do know that the bolt mount spacing for the calipers differs in width by about 1/2". Also the spindle on the 122 is about an 1/8 in smaller in diameter on the inside (larger) bearing.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
