I got my reardisc kit from Frontline

Check out Creativespridgets.com. Very well engineered. I have a kit. Yet to be installed.

Arie,
Does your car have a Frontline RTL? I like the idea of rear discs, but the Creative Spridget design looks like it will clash with the RTL.

Hi Mark, Yes mine has the Frontline RTL on it aswell.
And the double bearings, anti trampbars, finespline halfshafts and LSD.
And so far(knock on wood) since 2005 it has proofed to be bulletproof.
Arie

creativespridgets mounts behind the axle; FL mounts in front. behind the axle there's not a lot of space with RTL and spring there.
