I would love to have a templet of the bracket. That sounds like a great project to try and conquer......now all I have to do is try and find some free time

Templete

Dito on the templete,they should be easy to fab up. The parts list is great, brake lines are easy... Time for rear disks I think!
Thanks AC

SWEET! I'm excited. You do realize that this will go down as an INFAMOUS DIY tutorial for the rest of the fit's history right? You're writing Honda Fit Tuner history by even performing this... props man...

Thumbs up

W3RD! Though I can't see the pix from the computer I'm at right now but am able to read all the info and details. Great Job!

Honda so needs to hire someone just to tinker with leftover parts to mixmatch with other cars. No point in trashing usefull leftovers.

Why did you change back to drums? Your not selling the idea very well.

i changed it back to drums mainly because i had to take it back to the dealer to get something serviced, i did not want them to see it and void my warranty on the brake/ABS system
