Rear Disc brake ? How too

[Carl Rasmussen]

I want to put rear discs on my D44 rear Waggy axil does any one know what are the best or easyest part to use?

Depends on your fab skills. Easiest would be to call TSM and order up a full bolton setup; with or without parking brake.

If you want it cheaper, you could go with front FSJ rotors and calipers and make a custom mounting bracket similar to what they sell at TSM. That would mean you'd have no e-brake.

Or you could the same rotors, but use Caddy rear calipers with the integral rear parking brake.

Or you could find an early 90s Isuzu and snag it's 6-lug rotors and calipers with integral parking brake. You'd have to make a bracket to mount the caliper, might be able to modify the stock one.

You could also do like I did. There is aguy that sells a kit on ebay. Costs about $250 shipped. It includes instructions, mounting brackets, 2 new rotors. The kit allows you to add the calipers of your choice; caddy for ebrake or pontiac front for no ebrake. I went firebird front calipers. I installed my kit with new parts for less than $350 and in about 3 hours.

Carl, mine were self made by the po of the axle. I have pics of the brakes if you need them.

Stainless Steel Brakes makes a kit for the FSJ's. I believe there is also another company that does as well But I can't remember their name. These may be more expensive that other methods but they are complete kits with no fabrication involved.
