I've just bought myself a XT van and intend putting vented discs on to replace the horrid originals plus i'll upgrade the springs and shocks, lowering it at the same time.
Question one, Am i better off with using vented discs with the small hub or get later ones with the big hub ?
Question 2, i read somewhere that by using XA upper control arms, It'll lower my car, Is this true and if so, by how much ?
Question 3, I have a set of Pedders V8 lowered springs and gas shocks out of an XE...These will fit the XT, yes ?
Thanks in advance for any help :-)

no it wont just bolt in theres a bit of modifying to do cos xw/y zc/d had the booster and pedals moved abit to the left so u might have to cut the firewall out to suit the later master/booster setup ive been told (havent seen it with my own 2 eyes) that w
