those conversions take me about one hour each side, that includes inspecting and regreasing slides, machinin rotors, linishing pads (if 2nd hand), fitting components, etc

sometimes we rebuild wheel bearings while we are at it as everything is apart anyway
And it took me 11 hours! Worth doing though, and you need to use the AU2/BA brake lines, as the AU1 lines are too short.
