Am planning on swaping out the rear end on my '99. Dose anyone know what years will fit, prefarbly with disk brakes.

 

Keep your eyes out for an 03' Durango they came with rear disc brakes and will fit your application just fine.

 

97-04 will fit. I would look for a 9.25 rear end. I think in 03 and 04 they came with disc brakes.

 

iirc 03 was optional disc, 04 standard.

 

i believe thats correct as my dads 03 has discs and he bought his off the lot so it was relatively loaded w/ the xtras

 

Thanks that is what I was looking for. Hopfuly I can track one down this weekend.

 

would it be cheaper to get a disc brake conversion kit or would u be able to find an 03 and up axel in a junkyard? im lookin to put disc brakes on the rear for my r/t those damned drums are pissin me off

 

Those drums do suck! You would think they would have been all gone by the '90s. The conversion kits I have priced are about $800.00 so the bone yard would be cheaper. Hope I find one on Sat.

 

umm just to let you know idk if its just my dads truck, but both my truck, and my moms d have rear wheel drums and they have alot more stopping power than my dads truck w/ the 4 wheel discs, they seem to lack the stopping ability of the drums, at least w/ the drums you can stand the car on its nose if you need to, if i ever had to stop short w/ my dads truck i dont think it would work out to well

 

A good observation, Enzo Ferrari said it was simple math-the drum braks have a grater swept area- and rested using them for many years. But more so there is a reason Vipers, Vets, eaven all aircraft, and other such come with disk they do work btter, especialy when wet!
