Was unable to stop on a rainy fall day down the hill to my house. Riding road bikes 30+ years and sick of bad brakes. On mtb i stop fast with fingertips.
Sold the old bike and scored this disc braked thing locally. Luckily pink and rust under the paint so price was right.

I ordered Wilwood disc brakes for the front and rear for my 73 55. I'm told I will need larger rims to clear the brakes. I'd like to retain the stock rim look. What and where do I get them, what are my options? I'm looking but not finding a 16-17" rim.
Hello, I have a frankentruck that I'm dealing with, and it appears to have a full floating rear axle (it's an fj45) but heavily modified and not in a good way. I need brake discs for the rear, but it seems that the center hole in the disc is appx. 4.5 inches in diameter... I've tried multiple 4x...

So my poor baby sprung a leak in the right front drum and after talking to Noah Baldwin I think I've decided to bite the bullet and take the opportunity to convert to discs all around. Spoke to Noah and he said converting to disc is a great way to go. Mines a 1969 fj40 so he mentioned it would...
I have 1982 FJ43, imported from Columbia, and want to convert the front wheels to disc brakes. The stock drums are leaking fluid and are in bad shape all around. Does anyone know where to get either (a) replacement parts for the drum brakes, or (b) conversion kit to disc brakes?
Hi Guys, just wondering, how hard would it be to fit axles from a leaf sprung troopie to a coil sprung Bundera? I'm interested in the disk brakes all round, stronger axles and free floating setup in the rear. Anyone done similar?

Anyone know the best/correct front disc brake pads for my Aussie 1982 BJ42lx? Are they the same for all 1982 Fj40s? The BJ42 doesn't come up on the search at the usual NAPA/autozone places.
Should I get OEM from Beno? Or are there newer / better / cheaper replacement parts?
Thanks.
