SOLD! SOS Rear Disc Brake Conversion with Parking Brake 1st Gen

A nice feature with the backing plates is that you don't have to remove bearings. You cut the old backing plates off. These slip over the filler piece covers the slot.

 

who did you confirm with that they fit 1st gens. ?

 

I called SOS brakes and also compared the bearing retainer part numbers from 96-2004 Tacoma and 2000-2006 Tundra. They both use the same part number. Meaning that the bolt pattern for the backing plate is identical.

 

Ok gotcha, seems weird they would not advertise that they fit 1st gen tacomas then on their website. They would sell a lot of them if so.

 

I asked them that over the phone. His answer was that they never get anyone looking for them. So the quit advertising them. Doesn't make sense to me.

Hi Jon, do you still have the rear disc conversion for sale? Let me know if so. Thanks, David 6787709017

 

yes

 

Thanks for quick reply. Just ended up going different direction.

 

What did you end up going with.

 

I went SOS backing plates & parking brake stuff but getting my own remaining parts. No offense but just not a fan of red calipers or drilled rotors, not on a truck at least.

 

I wish I even thought for a second that the wife would let me do this. A $900 brake upgrade in the middle of a 4X4 swap just isn't gonna fly. I will keep an eye on this though.

 

would you happen to have the part numbers for the calipers you used? im trying to do a rear disc swap on a 5 lug and those are the missing link, i wont go disc if i lose a parking brake with my 5 speed.

 

Does installation of this setup require modification/removal of the LSPV in the rear? I may be interested.

 

From what I understand you leave the LSPV.

 

Howzit going Jonny 9 fingers!

I know this offering has been posted some time ago. But checking to see by chance if this kit is still available? Thanks! ....renny
