HT Stubs to HR front end?

As the title says, I have a set of HT 350 Monaro disc's and Stubs ready to go, Question, Do I need to change the steering arms or will the HR units bolt straight up? Will I have to run HT rims or will the 13"rims fit? Any advice will be good. If this won't work for me I will have a set of Monaro brakes for sale.

Theo,
What the hoppers website says
3/ HK/T/G Stubs fit HR fronts, giving a bit bigger solid rotor but you will need 14 inch wheels, at least still in FE to HR pattern. Not much better than HR or Torana discs.
Cheers

I'm running HT/HG discs on the wagon with 14's, not going yet

so I can't tell you what they are like but I thought they would be a bit better than HR, oh well

Thanks guys, RB, Yeprat1, Trev, Nomad, Now to find me a Rear end that will take the smaller wheel cylinders.
Trev, This is going into my Wagoon as well. Do I need V8 HT rims or will standard 6 cylinder rims do the trick?
RB, I noted in your thread about the Van that you got a 1 inch drop with the HT stubs and decided Then that was what I wanted. Did you use lowered springs as well?
Yeprat1, Are you using HR calipers or the HK/HT calipers? Mine are the V8 ones with wide rotors and 1/8 spacers in the caliper.

Theo, I'm using 5 inch front and 7 inch rear, so I don't think it matters.
The only thing I did was get the offset changed to hr disc spacing, Trev
