Great mod Matt, have you noticed a big difference in your stopping power?

sure have, joe. it stops a lot better now, and there's not much play in the pedal, which surprised me. i would have thought that the calipers would have taken more fluid to work properly than the drums. i might have to go to the carlisle truck show this year to show off the dana 60 conversion and rear disc brake conversion
