How to Rear Disc Brake Conversion!

What up playas, just wanted to take advantage of having this customer car that I’m working on and show you guys how to do a rear disc brake conversion, pretty simple job that a lot of people are afraid to tackle because of having to open the rear diff! Hope this helps out!

dude this tutorial was great, i made a dumb ass move and bought my kit before learning how to install it and im really glad i found this. thanks man.

[@BackYardYonkes]

Glad to hear man! Hope it helps out 👌🏼

[@ike___love]

@@BackYardYonkeshey I couldn’t tell in the video but do you have to disconnect the crank shaft where it meets with diff to turn axles to get to the bolt inside?

[@DJLIBERATORE7]

Excellent! This was thought out and presented very well. Much better than average. Thanks for taking the time to do it!

[@alias2306]

I watch the video half way through & I love how you guy’s kept explaining and showing us what to do; these kinda reminded me of chrisfix… you guys are doing great…

[@Clem112]

im doing drum to disc on my 98 virago motorcycle and came across this video, one of the best tutorials i've ever watched and it helped me with my bike even, Keep it up.

[@Madkilljoy]

Great fricking video man, super detailed, no annoying music or bullshit, this is a fantastic DIY on disc brake conversion

[@uniqueimages3415]

Man you made this look so easy!! Straight fire!!! Thank you!!!

[@johnlreim]

This is one of the best how-to videos I've seen. thanks

[@kinkinmyslinky967]

Don’t know how I got here but I certainly learned something. Pretty involved but clear instructions.

[@robbie7750]

Awesome video! Very helpful and not so freaking technical like some video people post 🙄 exactly what I needed to know

[@yeahididit9054]

Good job homie 👍🏼. I like how you explained everything without getting into a bunch of crap the average guy/girl needs to know to do this job. Nice 2nd gen too.

[@dopie5817]

GREAT video. love your work. id recommend getting go pros and stuff so you got both hands and dont gotta rely on eachpther to hold the cam. but god damn, great video, great work, you guys seem chill as hell. you got a long time subscriber now!

[@torydrake2846]

Awesome job explaining this conversion… I’ve been thinking about doing it for awhile but my drums haven’t caused me any problems so I never did. But now I will start looking for a gbody conversion kit! Thanks for sharing

[@user-cp2mt6bp8n]

Change it before the rust stick the drum and axle shaft

[@Titan-uy1qy]

Awesome bro thank you. Im getting ready to convert a 66 mustang. Tremendous help. Thanks again. Peace

[@Boxboychev77]

Dope man, keep putting out content in this same fashion. I'll be swapping my rear disc on my box chev this summer.

[@joebrown491]

This was a awesome video very simple and informative

[@orboakin8074]

I never knew this coukd be done😮 but i am a new driver😂. I bought a Pontiac g3 2010 and have been fixing it up with my dad. I just recently changed the front disc brakes and calipers and rear brake drums and shoes but am having trouble getting the new drum on. Once i am done fixing that, i will definitely switch to a disc brake for the rear next year.

[@elcodreamin5280]

I learned alot off this one. Thanks ✌️

[@stevenbean9706]

way more than i did on my b body mopar conversion you guys did great though gives you a reason to service the rear end of spool it with new gears

[@sabatinoilardo3282]

great detailed video, thank you .

[@charlieseidelmann6702]

Found your video helpful, gonna get the kit. 2 questions- did you ever have to have a different shim on one side vs. the other? And did you switch to a disc/disc proportioning valve?

[@jacobramos163]

Thank you man great video!

[@user-ui4nr6bm1o]

very good vid, well explained

[@EddieSpaghetti72]

Great Video, did you change out the proportioning valve?

[@anselgreene1922]

There are some kits where you dont have to remove your diff cover and pull your axel. I highly recommend you buy one of those its makes it so much easier. I just grinded off my drum backing plate. Alot easier then pulling out the axel. I might make a video on it

[@albertaustin6191]

Love it. Genius.

[@sleelakrishnan]

First Of All Thanks KZbin For Recommending This Content For Me 😌

[@user-du7kv4ck8u]

Good instructional video.

[@Thundarr995]

It didn't come with a disc brake combination valve. (Proportioning valve) disc brakes usually require higher pressure than drum brakes,so you probably pick up an adjustable combination valve.

[@dirtyred7265]

U make it look so easy

[@johndoe-zd9lb]

good video, fixin too do the same on mine, hopefully the bear brake kits use the factory holes on the axle tubes as well, not looking forward too doing any drilling or tapping, too get rid of my "crusty shit" lol

[@seandeefromthechi8118]

Good video. Just wish you showed the rest. Like replacing the line and replacing fluids.

[@bigp2487]

Hey man what did you end up doing with the E brake I seen that you got new ones as well.

[@user-mc7pn3yt7h]

Thanks for the video bro its amazing would you please tell me where to buy the actual conversion kit any store or website I will much appreciate it thank you in advance.

[@divynal66]

Awesome video! I’ve read in some other videos and websites that the master cylinder should be changed out to support the new set up. Thoughts?

[@nicolasloridan6209]

Bonjour merci pour la vidéo ça a répondu a une de mes questions encore merci 👍

[@rickeysweeney1174]

Great job 😮

[@knitesgarage7971]

Great video

[@drptp5017]

Did it work with your small rims. Did caliber rub wheels

[@chevy427ify]

😊 I would put new axle seal in too

[@sundia4u]

Thank you, for a great video! 👍

[@designsinorbit]

I just replaced the entire ebrake going to my rear drums...will that have been a waste of money because the new disc brakes have a different hook up?

[@misterspotswood]

i knew i was in good hands when i saw a fellow vato

[@abosjonjo]

Do you have a link where I can purchase it from?

[@limitlessautomedia9794]

I see a lot of comments in here about the master cylinders. It's the proportioning valve that needs to be changed. But might as well swap out the whole assembly.

[@Carlostorres-bj9mj]

Hey bro, where I can find the full set of discs, I have a ford maverick 1973

[@Yourengineeringstandpt]

I know this has nothing to do with it but I'm looking to do a conversion on my toyota corolla le 1.8 ltr sedan on rearwheels what are the parts do I order if you can let me know 2012.. I would greatly appreciate it, if you could do a video on this it would be vary cool of you thank you

[@noellefelix2966]

That ultimate moment of satisfaction at 12:30. Ahhh🤙😀

[@Tonygarry78]

Does yrr vehicle stop better with the new disc brakes

[@kilesavila4377]

How do u change your brake pads tho

[@jairoquevedo5206]

Is this process the same? I have a 1972 c20 I want to change to disk breaks.

[@dubblewrap]

I love more then to good details. I love all the positive coments!

[@SgtJohnRemairez]

Damn dude, I got the same product from getdiskbrakes....except i got the front conversion kit lol :P If I do the rear end imma just buy a whole rear axle with disk brakes. These are going on my uncle's 67 Cutlass. Hopefully it's a good product. damn it's gonna be a pain in the ass I think to do the Brake Booster. I never really bench primed a booster or anything...kinda intimidated but I must do this for my dad and Uncle

[@alfredodeanda3293]

Wondering if booster or master cylinder has to be changed

[@kevinmoore2651]

Did you have to change portion value or anything?

[@wildbill9736]

Where did u get them from ?

[@Ian-of9oi]

You did not need to change your master cylinder? I’m thinking about doing a rear disk conversion on a different rig. I don’t want to replace my master cylinder if I don’t have to.

[@onegative8887]

How wide are those rotors

[@rodrigocarranza2565]

Give as the link where you got the parts my friend if you don't mind 😁

great information thank you

[@jesusmunox9296]

What city do you live in Los Angeles? do you only do for hobby?

[@TheCanadianBubba]

Shoulda put new axle seals in man ! Guess it does not matter with no driveshaft LOL !

[@moisesgomez2660]

Thank you bro

[@NeutronX101]

Gloves?

[@jhitbob]

after spending 8 hours on just one side of my rear drums, yeah, i think i want discs

[@NeutronX101]

Why dont you use bounty?

[@TheDavy609]

Good job bud. Easy to follow. But yeah definitely want new seals. Also did you need to change your proportional valve? Car looks good too.

[@boobinjason7643]

Can you explain “new values” I’m trying this project and don’t know what you mean. Good vid

[@zebracake2246]

@@boobinjason7643 he probably means the proportional valve in the front of the car that changes how much pressure is going to each brake

[@noellefelix2966]

What a cutie..... maybe we can work on my car together 😇😅 I have a 2000 Honda accord, wanted to swap out the rear brake drums for brake rotor discs. Had some scary calls where the performance of my braking was a "close call" and skidded. Im a newbie car owner, but I found something I absolutely love! I love working on my car and enhancing it. I want to add a charger next, but unsure whether to go with super charger or a turbo charger... I want to keep highest fuel efficiency (CONSIDERING GAS PRICES) but I still want speed and not a 0-60 in freaking 15 seconds it sucks merging onto the freeway!Learning new things is always fun when it's something your passionate about. Great video, he's still a very attractive man 😅🤪😚

[@1stprinceoflite]

You're another ChrisFix but you show the dirty side of it. Did you use some anti seize compound anywhere?

[@frankm2385]

Good video. Wilwood makes you take a dozen measurements before ordering. What universal kit did you use? Brand & part number?

[@BackYardYonkes]

Wilwood does that to make sure they get you the right stuff the first time since a lot of people use different rear ends that aren’t stock for that car. This is a right stuff detailing kit, not sure of the part number but it works with a variety of gm cars.

[@KevinRoadrageGarage]

So do you have to change the master cylinder or the proportioning valve?

Yes grab one for 79-85 is Seville. Seville = dressed up Nova. They came from factory with disc and have same flair on line

Hey man, awesome video. Question, do you think this kit would work for a 87 Caprice? Thanks!

[@josechavez656]

It works for all gm 10 bolt rear ends

[@dinocarrillo]

@@josechavez656 awesome - do you happen to have a link to the kit? Thank you very much!

[@pmotorsports8276]

Caprice with commercial chassis is 5 X 5" bolt pattern. This kit is 5 X 4.75". If you have commercial chassis grab a rear fro 94-96 Caprice (typically come posi and disc from factory

[@dinocarrillo]

Thank you so much for your feedback on this@@pmotorsports8276 - so I'm not sure what a commercial chassis means in terms of the type of car I have, but my Caprice is a standard 1987 sedan. I do think your idea of swapping out the rear from a 94-96 caprice is a good choice!

swapping drum to disc's is the stupidest conversion ever. you'll have to change your rear brake pads 4X as often, their extremely expensive, you can't lock them up and drift, and Now you have 2 more brakes that are prone to squealing and grinding....
