Disc Brake Swap... Mill the Axle Flange

I guessing the new 4Runners rear disc setup is pricey.
I recently purchased a Kodiak mechanical caliper, meant for a large trailer. So, as of now, I'm looking into making a transfercase brake for under $150. Caliper I am using is a full caliper unlike the trailgear/sky and cost 80$ locally. Now I need to source a disc of the proper size, or have a piece cut out for this project.

Edit:
The Caliper pictured above, would not work, it rubbed the wheel, and clearancing those calipers is not an option because of their design.
I ended up using single piston front calipers from an 1980 Corolla, i will get into specifics in my build thread when i get the parking brake set-up.

Well I ended up going with Supra brakes...but...seems like I was onto something....
92 Subaru Loyale Calipers.
I am never satisfied with my brakes, this may be a future mod.
