How do I convert bundera rear diff to disc brake

[bru21]

Want to convert the rear to disk. thought about falcon calipers etc bit of messing around! Is there anything bolt on? pref with handbrake too.

cheers bru

There is nothing really bolt on.. you will need to manufacture the brackets, or look at using a prado/late model surf rear end with factory rear discs.

Check out the build up thread by MART on his disc brake conversion, and also do a search for posts made by ozrunner. Some blokes where making up bulk brackets about 12 months ago, and there was a big thread full of tech info on calipers and rotors to use.

Basically i think your limited to early subaru calipers or the falcon calipers, unless you want to use a transfer mounted handbrake, and then you are really only limited by imagination

I used Pajero discs and calipers on my bundy. No need to mess around with axle changes....but mines coil springs.

have you thought about MA70 supra rotors/calipers?

This link is to a dude that sells MA70 rotor adapters for hilux diffs but I imagine that bundy diffs are the same. Not sure though.

The only problem I can see is that you may have to run 16inch rims as I think that is what supras came with standard and the caliper may rub on a 15inch rim. Again, not sure on any of this, just another idea.

EDIT: bogged from linked thread:
I have managed to squeeze the 291mm rotors under a 14" rim in the Crown, so hopefully they should fit under 15" rims - a lot will depend on the rim itself of course.

what was involved here. did the rotors fit over where the drum was? did you just cut some ears to hold the calipers to the diff?

thanks for the help all

I used subaru calipers and GQ disks. there's plenty of options.
