i've looked in in the bible but could'nt find any thing on this topic!
Reason I ask isi hate the feel of drums when they get really wet from playing in mud and rivers. I think disc would pull up a lot better then compared to drums. Any idea's peoples

looks pretty simple cheers for the pics HOPPY MAKES IT A BIT EASIER (bloody cap lock)

to understand. Now just gotta find time and try and make a bracket. I think it would be a good conversion, I read there that i need a proporsion valve or some thing like that, how do i know if i have 1?

It looks like this and is mounted on the drivers side of the chassis about half way along, I got one.

I am sure you have considered getting a GQ. Unless the mods you want to do are really cheap it would be worth considering.

Ya but there is something about making a good truck better instead of buying a better truck!
