Looking for Chevy disk brake conversion parts.

Post by JGZ »

I'm looking for any Chevy disk brake conversion parts. Mostly the caliper brackets and spindles.If a ford set up is out there I would consider it also.
Thanks in advance.

Me too. The previous owner of my bronco converted the front to Disc, but they need replaced now. IΓÇÖm thinking I have the Chevy conversion parts on the front, and I need to switch the rear to disc. Any news about what the Chevy parts I have on the front is good, and the rear disc info is helpful too. Thanks!

If you already have the Chevy disk brake conversion on then I would leave it unless you expect to do allot of wheeling. There virtually no differences between the ford and Chevy dana44 conversion besides the ford having a slightly bigger knuckle opening. The larger opening is helpful if you have to pull the axles out. I THINK the Chevy spindles have 6 bolts holding them on. You would have to pull the hub/rotor off to check.

Rear ford 9ΓÇ¥ conversion I would lean toward the explorer conversion kit, but there other options out there.
