I currently have sunny struts on my 1200 ute (I know there are better upgrades but I am running with these struts for now).

I want,need to upgrade the brakes further and was told that I should use modified magna/verada discs and VT commodore calipers as they bolt straight on. (luv this "straight on" stuff ha ha)

I have two questions:

Does anyone know where in Sydney I can get the magna discs machined and redrilled ?

and secondly,

Yes, it's true, in an off the car trial fit the calipers bolt straight up but on the car they hit the steering arm way before the bolt holes line up.

I have now been told that I should reverse the struts IE: put the left on the right and vice versa as this will put the caliper at the front instead of the rear and solve the clearance issue.

I had a trial go at this and it looked ok but has anyone done this, will it work ? Would it change the steering geometry ?
