Yes i have, i made a whole run of mounting brackets for them.

I've since parted out my hilux and still have all the disc brake gear left ove if your interested. $350 for axles, rotors, calipers, brake lines and mounting brackets.

Call me stupid - why do you need axles? DO the std ones not work with disk rear?

i think stumpy would just prefer to sell the diffs complete rather than having to strip them and try to sell a diff with no brakes.

It's just a pain stripping down the drum brakes off the axles. I did it and repaced the bearings at the same time. The diffs isn't complete, ie. no housing but everything you need to do the conversion.

As to the ones who want to argue about searching, i really don't care, but don't cry if someone has a go at you. Just remember, we're all big men when we're on the internet.

so are you going to pass on the knowledge? or do we need to pay 350$ for it?

Jes
The links that people have posted above give details as to what is required.

As for the $350, it cost me alot more to do the conversion and chase down the parts and time and effort designing it then what its worth to do it yourself. I in no way saying don't do it yourself, its just that 350 bucks is cheap for a hassle free, bolt on conversion.
