Getting OT,

But then it's a Morris Mini Deluxe, Morris Mini K etc. The Leyland badges didn't appear until 1972? My Moke is a 1971 build and it's just a Morris!

It may be a Morris Mini K but it was built by Leyland. 8)

no, it's a Leyland Moke.... :P does the Moke even have a Morris badge on it anywhere?

I have a BLMCA Morris Cooper S MK2 - it's not even a Mini ;)

I'm going by what's on the car badge, not the brochure. Never came across anyone referrinvg to a car sas just a "Leyland Morris" before. I guess I'm in a nit-pciky mood.

SK, My Moke does not have Leyland or Morris anywhere, just "MOKE" on the front. No idea what it had on the compliance plate, as it's missing. But according to VicRoads it was first registered as a 71 Morris Utility, so that's what it is now. 8)

there are a couple of early 80's diahatsu vans and a little hatch that have 10" wheels. one has 7" discs and the van has 7 1/2" discs both with single piston calipers. the discs look similar to mini.[I have not done full check yet]
If you can get a set of morris 1100 discs[8 "] and calipers [2" piston] these can be fitted to cooper hubs by redrilling from 3/8" to 7/16" for caliper mount and machine disc back to 7 1/2"
I use discs and calipers off a suzuki swift s.s.80v [12" wheels] and mount onto either drum hubs or cooper s hubs to suit 10" . disc from 8 1/4" to 8". New rotors are readily available.
with any of these conversions work out costs if you have to pay for machining etc. as new cooper s may work out better.
