here is the how to write up.

The guy used the rear rotor from an srt-4. But i can imagine that you can use the rotor and cailper from any 2gn neon.

I did the rear disc swap for my 02. I had a lot of problems with the banjo bolt fitting the caliper from Autozone, but the Orileys caliper is almost a direct OEM.

It takes about 3-4 hours, which would include bleeding the brakes and swapping EVERYTHING.

LMK if you need anymore help with anything. You'll need E-Brake cables, backplates and calipers. I got all my stuff off of an 01 R/T

Rear calipers also require different brake lines than rear drums.
