4 Piston Caliper on 4 lug?

is this possible? My calipers are frozen from sitting for years, so i wanna get a pari of brand new calipers.....are these easy replacement for the single piston? What would I also have to replace (besides the pads obviously) to make this swap happen?

i believe that you need to aquire the 5 lug hubs to upgrade to a 4 piston setup. i think that there is a write up about it .. try searching for it might give you a better idea of whats involved

I also would like to see if they could be adapted to fit on the 4 lug rotors....

Obviously you'd need to make some mounting brackets.....I'd try this but I dont have any 4 piston calipers too see how it would line up

i dont think it would work because the 5 lug rotor is slightly larger than the 4 lug one
