G'day

I have a 1991 75 Series Cab chassis that has drum rear brakes. Can anybody tell me if I can convert to discs by using parts from newer disc braked rear end 75 and if so what parts will I need? Hope someone can help.

Regards

what does the rear backing plate look like and what is the bolt pattern that holds the backing plate to the housing?

So this is what you are after :lol:

The brackets are for sale, from memory they costed around the $600 mark.. with parts, ready to bolt on. Thats all second hand except the brackets which were new, and new grade 8 hardware throughout.

If you want some I can put you in touch with the guy who make them. the parts are 75 series rotor, 75 series caliper, 75 series hub, needs minor machining to interface with the rotor properly.

Had a death in the family and had to move back to Sydney for 8 months and wife had a baby 3 months ago so just have not had the time. I am back at our property on the Gold Coast now so will look at starting something in the near future.
