Our disc brake conversion kit is the best conversion to eliminate the drum brakes on a 14 Bolt Rear Axle. The 14 bolt axle is common in Chevy / GM fullsize trucks from 1972 until today in the 3/4 ton and 1 ton range. Changing from Drums brakes to disc brakes is easy, and all the parts you need to complete the conversion are included in this kit to get rid of those heavy drums brakes. These will only work on a 73'-87' axle the newer axles are hit and miss.

2 Weld on Brake Line Tabs
2 Brake Line Clips
2 New Brake Calipers
2 Hydraulic Hoses with 10mm Banjo Bolt Fittings

Double check stud diameter, these rotors require a stud with 5/8" knurled diameter with 9/16" lug diameter or they will need to be drilled for larger diameter studs. Be sure to have minimum 5/8" lug nut thread engagement)

After many years of customers asking us
for complete Disc Brake Conversion Kits
we finally did it! Now I had resisted doing
it for good reason, you could buy the parts
for less locally. However, now that we are
bigger and have a bit of buying power we
can beat the local stores and deliver
everything in one kit without first asking
if your rig has AC like at the parts stores!
All of these kits are tried and true, the 14
Bolt stuff has been made by us for 10 years
and all the others have been in the line-up
for at least 8 years! We know how to make
them work right the first time.
