I have seen that one guy, that is now deceased, had a set up for them. Sid's has an 8 bolt disc brake set up for $525. I have also seen Auto City Classic and Toms Classic has 5 bolt setups for 1/2 tons. Can you adapt the 1/2 ton brakes to the one ton? I am not sure I want to go back to the 8 lug wheels. I was thinking to do 6 lug. Can you drill out the 7/16" hole to make it 1/2" to mount or are there other things to do or change out? I changed my rear axle to a Ford 8.8 explorer rear axle with 3.73 gears and disc brakes. Also, what booster/dual reservoir set up are people using? Thanks for your help | | |
