Hilux rear disc conversion

NFORCA · Post by **NFORCA** » Wed Jul 26, 2006 11:13 pm

Has any one done this? Just wondering what callipers and discs you used to make the conversion simple?

I did a search, but couldnt find anything.

Cheers

Todd

Or you could support the board advertisers who sell them for a hell of a lot less than that

Are Wizard brakes the same as Mu?

Cheers for the help guys.

Wizard brakes are the same as 1996 on MU's - earlier ones are totally different.

No, been there with the Wizard/MU ones... the rotor might nearly fit but thats about it.

Also, those setups are for an internal drum handbrake assy inside the disc rotor itself, nothing like the Hilux axle. However... If you wanted 4.5 diffs then just fit a Wizard or MU axle under the Lux... bingo.
