So I picked up some new axles and in the process of cleaning them up and replacing brakes and seals ect. So I picked up a Dana 60 and 70. It appears the Dana 70 has a disc conversion. I don't know where I can get replacement parts. I know from searching that the calipers are most likely from a 77 Cadillac but don't know what pads and rotors 2 use. Any help would be great cause I need brakes haha.

 

Here is a pic of the caliper

 

01.5 is when the dana 80s and 70's started to come with disc brakes. If it was converted it could just be using parts from a new year. What year truck did it come from.

 

it came out of a 2001 but the calipers don't look like dodge calipers and the brackets don't look stock at all. I belive there was a conversion done. PLUS I'm pretty sure all 2nd generation rams uses parking shoes and not the caliper.

 

I guess I should of knew that!. Now that im not on my phone I can clearly see its not a dodge caliper/setup. From what I have found that most use a chevy k20 caliper tho it doesnt have a parking brake or the Cadillac Eldorado caliper that does have the parking brake they are the same thing minus the parking brake.

 

ya i ordered a 77 eldorado caliper and its the same but needs a little work. its missing the hole to hold the ebrake spring bracket and the top has a a bigger part on it in the casting, had to grind down but it works, i ordered k20 rotors and they are not the same as the ones i pulled off, not as deep i would say. ordered some 88 f250 rotors and hopfully they work will find out tomorrow.

heres a pic of the old caliper with the bracket and the new one with out. pretty easy to drill a hole through it and mount the bracket, you can see also where you have to grind the top off abit. no biggy.

 

 

oh and the part#s are for these calipers 18-4116 pass side and 18-4117 left side, if anyone with the egr kit needs replacement parts, will update rotor part #s when i figure that out.

 

hmm thats weird I do know that if you have to turn the cores in take off the brackets and stuff cause the new one doesnt come with it and they are near impossible to find. Maybe the k20 rotors were different in some years.

 

well i was hoping the new ones came with everything so i could have kept all the stuff but the new ones didnt even come with holes to install the bracket weird. and the were pricey 100 bucks each
