This subject has been covered on here in the past. Do a search for "type 3 brakes", or something like that, in the brakes section. You might want to check out the best offset, and how wide of wheel you can fit under those T3 fenders also. The search feature on here is you're friend :)

Hi

A quick upgrade is Type 72 and later callipers, you'll need to change the stub axles as well.
