Man am I confused (disc brake)

[stoney126]

man After reading about a dozen posts on the disc brake conversion im am at a loss. I have the brackets from rough stuff, I just need everything else.
I want to go with an ebrake so caddy calipers would be in order but have read the cost for them is insane, Then There is getting the levers and springs for it.
Also am I going to have redo my ebrake lines? Anyway thanks for any help

Springs and levers are easy; search my posts for part numbers and such.

Parking brake lines might need fiddling on the ends.

Rotors have been covered -- I presume you're talking about a 14BFF -- and the calipers are either the front 4x4 ones, or the Caddies. While the Caddies do cost more, I've had pretty good luck with them. YMMV.

Another option is either an electric line lock or a Mico Lever line-lock instead of an e-brake

I have some never used Caddies, but as usual I do not have the springs or levers.

I remember getting a real good deal on these, so I will go back and see what I paid for them and I wll get back with you, if ou wnat them.....

I went rockwells and so I have all of this stuff left over....

Keep it in PM's gents... and Stoney, if you need the springs (see my other post for part #'s) I can get them local and mail 'em up to you if you can't find 'em local.

I used those, And I bought the calipers from autozone, and returned some front calipers that I had lying around and got the core charge back.

Ooh, now those are slick 'cuz they're the push levers like TSM uses, not the factory pull-style.

Damn, I wish I had fifty bucks right now...
