rear brake conversion

[NITRAM-X]

i heard that you can match up the rear disc brakes off of a 4 runner and get rid of the drum in the back. has anyone else heard of this and would it be pricey?

who told you that?:thumpdown:

you just gonna drill an extra hole for the 6th lug nut?

someone at xfest micro it may have not been a 4 runner but he said a toyota tech told him it would line up

:hmmmm2: What if you did just drill 5 new holes in the rotor, then used our axles? Sounds crazy, but not that crazy if you think about it.

fellas sounds looney to me.if your gonna go with the 4 runner disc set.its a gm rear rotor just have to figure out what year and model.

easier to call sos performance and order the pro series kit and be done with it .:top:

I was looking at the SOS regular one and wondering, if the rotor and/or pads wear out, what will I replace them with.:dontknow: Very tempting though.

other than the bling factor, what el$e would ju$tify a conver$ion?
I know the s-10 guys could swap in a Olds bravada rear setup and the 83-92(non 1LE) camaro guys could swap in a 93-02 rear with no problems. Would any leafspring rear work?

IMO, Disc > Drum brakes anyday. Drums are just a bit outdated. They're still here, because of the same reason why FWD was created. Its a cheaper alternative, and it works.
