Cinquecento Project PT Cinquecento

[jamie86]

Remember to take the brakes of the Punto before it's scrapped

The fronts are a bolt for bolt swap and the rears just need a bracket making up or you could probably use the GT's Not quite 100% on that although I know the Uno hubs work..

Anyway plenty of threads on that if you search..

This sounds like a awesome project.

And the wheels

T.E.D. Jordan machines brackets to convert cinq rears to GT brakes, or something like that.

No need for the brackets if you bolt the hubs and all on from the GT though

Its only the UT rear hubs that bolt straight on, the GT rears are different as they are beam suspension whereas the UT/cinq is independant arm

Doh my mistake In that case but Jordans mounts like I did as well

(Only to remember about complete UT rear axle in my garage )

UT doesn't have independant rear suspension, but Cinqs do. UT (and all mk1/ mk2 Unos for that matter) have a beam type rear axle with fixed trailing arms attached to it (I think that's what you mean about independent arm?) Cinqs have fully independent rear suspension arms in comparison

 

[Munkul]

anyway, the caliper brackets bolt on to the original cinq hubs, and the GT calipers bolt onto the brackets, he explained it to me last night.

You are correct, i worded that wrong, was meant to say that the UT hubs and brackets bolt straight on to the cinq arms

Thanks for rectifiying that
