Re: rear brakes

I just did this conversion. I got the correct axles for my truck and then got a rebuild kit with drums. You mind as well rebuild the brakes while you tearing it apart. The axles came with bearings and new seals.

Re: rear brakes

I got the axle conversion from ECE and got the rebuild kit from CPP. Most of the vendors on here sell them to.
