    I’ve got to admit, that was my understanding!
     
  3. Vehicle manufacturers spend a fortune on testing etc ..I don’t think safely you can just cobble together stuff that fits and hope it will perform as good as manufacture spec brakes ..the master cylinder is matched to what brakes you have front and rear and depending on where the weight of the vehicle bias is. The last thing you want is the rears to lock up under braking and overtake the front of car ... having said that 95 % of modern cars have rear discs so they must be better or cheaper
