ArdWrknTrk Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 That's some major braking it sounds like. I wondered what it would take, and what donor vehicle I could look out for you be able to convert the drum to disk on the Cobra. I did a conversion on my '01 Jeep XJ,and absolutely love it. Later vans had discs. There are a couple of years (I believe) that had disc while retaining the old 8 on 6.5" pattern before the vans went to metric lugs. Edit ***1999-2001 E350 with SRW were D-60 while '99-'01 E350 cutaway with DRW are Dana 70. Both had discs with parking drums. The E450's had a driveline brake at the front of the driveshaft.**** Does your motorhome have a D70 rear axle? What ratio and tire size? If you go to a disc rear you're going to remove the residual pressure valve so the pads can retract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
351FUN Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Replacing the rubber hoses with braided made a huge difference on my trucks. I've had no luck finding these, are they different for F250vsF150? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
