rear disc brake conversion need some info

Post by oxy »

gday was wondering if anyone could help? have a gq swb with drum rear brakes and was looking at putting on disc all round. Is converting them easy or finding another axle already with disc setup easier. Thanks for your help

The easiest way is a full diff swap. Yo'll also need to swap the master brake cylinder. I think gq rear diffs go fairley cheaply these days ($500 - $700). Make sure you get the right ratios because the diff centers between drum and disk diffs are not compatible to my knowledge (different splines).

Cheers
