Re: DIY Disc Brake Conversion

No problem!
Yeah that's what I'm doing. Now if you can find the calipers from a junk yard, do it. They came on all all 3500's, 2500's, and i believe some 1500's from 2001 to 2014. Both trucks and vans. Reason I say this, is because the calipers were $40, but the core price was ANOTHER $40 on top of that. I found some calipers at a local yard for $15 a pop. I'd say worth saving some cash.
I just checked the wheels, it looks like you'll unfortunately need to get new wheels to fit the calipers. But your 19" rims may do the trick.
