I checked them out but it appears they don't offer the conversion for the wagoner anymore.jpswapmohn wrote:I used TSM a decade ago to convert my rear D44. It has worked well, although I never did get around to swapping the calipers to get an e-brake working. I think they are still around.
I had looked into doing that as well. I'm not sure if I will replace to disc or not. I already have the hydro boost on the upgrade list however I'm eventually going to need to replace/fix most of the rear in the upcoming 2 years and had thought while I'm doing that it wouldn't be much work to switch over to grab that additional 25% stopping power esp if I go slotted.tgreese wrote:Why do you want to convert to disks? A working parking brake is significantly easier with drums. And the rear brakes don't do much except keep the back end of the car from swinging around in hard braking. Most of the stopping is done by the front wheels.
Maybe a hydroboost would be a better upgrade?
This is for my J2000. It's already hydroboost (with drum front and rear) and I have this fatal attraction to deep water crossings/mud. I've noticed water and drum brakes don't play well together.tgreese wrote:Why do you want to convert to disks? A working parking brake is significantly easier with drums.
