Default Swapping FG brakes

G'day mate, i just asked this question below in another thread and i was directed by Spoolman to speak to you...

Will FG Ute front 4 pot Brembo's swap onto a BF sedan up the front and will the rear PBR's off a FG Ute fit onto the rear of a BF sedan?

I just read in one of these threads on this subject that it is possible, but i will need to swap over the crossover pipe and move the bleeder nipples. Now having no knowledge of doing this, is it a hard to do or an expensive exercise?
Also, is it possible to swap over the rear PBR's of the FG Ute onto my BF sedan, or are there more problems associated with this also?
Thanks for you help.
Brendan

Brendan with a little bit of mucking around they should fit. The fronts will need changing around as mentioned just take it slowly when doing these so you do not crossthread anything and on the rears it may just need a grind or cut here or there on the backing plate and/or the banjo end of the hose to caliper as we just found out on Saturday that there are some minor differences in fittings but not enough it seems to worry about not doing the job.
