Re: Diff housings and brakes FB to HR - differences?

If the centre shape is the same as the HR but it has sadle plates the same as the FB/EK then it's an EJ/EH housing
The very round smallish with bulge for crownwheel housing is FB/EK or earlier

Re: Hr diff baseplates

when running a disc brake front the rear brakes should have a smaller wheel cylinder than drum brakes all round or as austmod said proportioning valve otherwise you get rear brake lockup under hard braking

there's also my case of i just like the looks of the EJ/HR housings :? :roll:
