E350 8 lugs 2004 brakes problem conversion

Hi,
Did someone ever tried converting the front brakes on an E-350 2004 to the new style 2008 and up?
I heard that they are much better and that they will fit on the older models.

Also, who sells those ?

Thank you.

Rock Auto has rotors, calipers and brackets with part numbers unique for 08-14. Someone will know if they fit your '04 knuckles which is possible since they use the same ball joints, bearings and tie rods.

Maybe this guy? https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...th-photos.html

The '04 E350 brakes should be adequate for that GVW, the above update was basically intended for the earlier E250's with 8 lug wheels, essentially they become E350 front brakes.

Do keep in mind E150's after 2007 became E250's chassis-wise----previously E150's had 5 lug wheels and a significantly lower GVW and cargo rating.
