I used the straight axle setup since I already had new calipers and rotors. Then got the brackets, spacers ,lugs , hardware and a new master from low range off road.Make sure you remove the lspv and block off the return line from the block at the right front wheel. I ran a new line from the block that goes to the rear the all the way back to the rear hose . Used proportioning and fittings from summit, installed right off the master. While your back there do the rear seals and wheel bearings. Bottom picture shows a tool I made to remove the axles from the backing plate

What rotor can I use on the rear of my truck that will fit onto the hub and work with my sfa calipers? I have sfa rotors but the inside diameter is too small and wont go on the hub

Brakes

The brackets/kit i used came from Lowrange , it came with the round spacers shown in my above post pictures . You put the spacer on the back side of the axle flange then the sfa rotor on next then press the studs threw them all. Uses the sfa calipers . So if you need to change a rotor in the future you will have to pull the axle and press the studs out.

u can cut the rotors to a smaller size of the hub to fit too. theres a youtube video of it somewhere where they did that and it worked well

I got mine all finished up today. Working great so far. Left the stock proportioning valve. Fronts lock up before rear.
