21080, rear drum to disk brake question
Posted by oMInOUs97RS, Nov-14-03 06:38 PM
Does anyone have a factory part list for the parts needed to do the swap? I can't find some of the parts around me, and was just going to get them through the dealership (through Bob Kise).
Thanks for the info.

That would be a very expensive choice. Contact mitsubishi specific salvage yards or have a local salvage yard to a search to find what you need.

which parts do you need as I might be able to get them. The parts you need are the rotors, calipers, hubs and ebrake cables, and the brake lines. I believe that is it.

i was able to do some custom work to the mount on the disk brakes to make the drum brake (e-brake) line to work.....also i have a caliper i could sell you....i got three of them when i was at the junkyard....let me know if you need it, not sure what side it is, but ill check later if you want it

www.se.dsm.org under the how-to section has a writeup that tells you how to modify the drum brake ebrake lines so you dont need the ones of a rear disc brake car, not sure what all is involved tho. here are the pictures i took when i did mine this weekend.
