switching to rear disks
 
I have a 2000 dodge with rear drums and was wondering if there is a bolt on kit for this to change to disks? I know it would be worth doing, just wanted to see if I was in for a serious project or if its not to bad to do...

Dodge Cummins Rear Disc Brake Conversion Kit 94 - 01 Ram 2500 Calipers & Rotors | eBay

I am very interested in it as well

thats a good price for the disc conversion.

Not a bad price at all. I swapped out my entire rear axle to get disc brakes. I also upgraded to a Dana80 over the Dana70 that came in the truck. $1000 from a wreckers for the axle with brakes.

My 2001 has disc brakes in the rear, I wonder if it was a mid year change where they added the disc to the rear.

From what I researched and have heard, that is exactly what happened.

So im assuming i have 2001 1/2, Not an early 2001.

IT makes a huge difference, night and day in braking force.
