I posted a while back and someone posted a link to a kit where I could replace my drums with disc brakes. Kit was about $300 with chevy parts. All new. Fine by me, but I can't for the life find this kit. Anyone know what I am talking about?

 

bump. Anyone?

 

I found this in 15 seconds by using the search function:

https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/9...o-drums-2.html

And yes, I posted in that thread, but all I did was go to advanced search, select the dentside forum, and search "rear disc"

 

What is a search function? Sorry and thanks

 

blue bar almost at the top of the page, see in the center where it says "search?"
click on that, and you can either do a simple search of all forums (pretty worthless on a sight like this) or click advanced search, and it brings up a page that legs you put in what you want to search and where you want to search.
So many things have been asked already that you can find a lot of answers immediately by searching, and then you don't have to wait for someone to answer them.

 

here is where i got mine from
TSM MFG. CO., INC.

 

I got my kit from www.blackbirdscustomtrucks.com

 

any trouble putting them on? Instructions?

 

x2, for my dana 60 rear. installing the kit was easier than changing pads and rotors on the front.

 

1977 Ford F250 4x4 - Dana 60 Disc Brake Conversion

This should help. I am doing it right now. One of the brackets I got was mis drilled and Ruff Stuff is sending a new set. Waiting on that now. Supposed to be here monday.
