#19818, "Where to buy rear drum to disk conversion?"


          

What was the name of the place that sells 'kits' from a junkyard for the rear brake conversion? Was it www.allmitsubisi.com or somthing like that? Or if anyone has any for sale?

If I were you I would just go to a junkyard and take the parts off of a donor car, it would probably be cheaper and easier. Thats how I converted mine.

def junkyard. It should cost around 100 bucks for everything. Don't forget the brake lines.

--bolt on turbo kit (star, hahn, etc.)
--rear drum to disc set up
--internals

You need a lot more than than. Calipers and rotors are the easiest to find. Next you need the hubs, dust shield, brake lines, hmmmm...there's prolly more. Good-luck

You can have it cheap, fast or good. Pick any two.

If you want it cheap and fast, it's not going to be good.

You get everything you need if he has a setup in stock. Ask for Dan.

You may be able to find it a bit cheaper locally if that is an option. If not, shipping is not cheap and I think he still wants $250 for a complete conversion setup shipped.

Only thing you should have to buy is brake fluid. Remember to only take suggestions from those that have actually done the work on their cars.

The other two suggestions above are also great places to call if you need used components. Good luck

Here is the link from the Handling Section listed in the Mods area.

Hope this helps you. Some people seem to miss the writeup for some reason. I think when I wrote the write-up, I listed allmitsu phone number incorrectly. Just check the website for the correct one.
