Not sure how hard it would be but I'm nearly sure they will fit. I have a vague recolection of reading about people doing it on the ftooc but I could be wrong. I'm sure someone with a bit more knowledge will be able to confirm that for you.

Wont fit unless you have the EVO 5 hubs and wishbones. The calipers are too close to the FTO to make a mounting bracket strong and safe.

These calipers are mounted solid on the hub, disk has to be centre of the caliper. there is not enough room to make a thick enough bracket to withstand the forces when brakikng

Can you get your hand on the hubs and wishbones. Both have to be from an evo fitted with brewbo's, standard ones wont do.

Depending on your price i might be interested for a project i am doing :D

Could do a swap if you needed any FTO bits
