Help with what I need for rear disc conversion

Hello I am a little confused on what I exactly need for the rear disc brake conversion.

To start I have a 1994 22re pickup 4wd 5 speed.

Here is the bracket I am looking at http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rear-Disc-Brake-Brackets-Toyota-Mini-Truck-Pickup-4Runner-4WD-79-95-Conversion-/300878917633?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item460dc7f001&vxp=mtr
What else I need

- 85 monte carlo or seville front calipers?
-brake pads for what ever caliper I go with
-rotors from a 6 lug chevy truck ( not sure what model or years will work )
-Unsure on the 2 lb residual valve or a 1" bore Master Cylinder.
-Also unsure on the proportioning valve.


I really appreciate the help

Not to be a d*ck, but what about the rear disc brake conversion kits they sell for a couple hundred bucks, it comes with literally everything you'll need. Instead of trying to collect the right parts to do it.

I looked Into the complete kits. Who offerers the best complete kit for the money? Also I noticed I still need to do something with gettingthe 2 lb residual valve or a 1" bore Master Cylinder and a proportioning valve?

low range off road has a bracket kit that will utilize 85 front rotors and calipers. I like the idea of not having to modify rotors or pay to much for it to have it all ready done. yes they are a solid rotor verses a vented rotor but it is for the rear and even some new cars still utilize a solid rear rotor. you will at that point use a 4 piston caliper verses a crappy slide bolt single piston set up. yes the work but open to issues.

the problem with these rear disc kits is that no one seems to have a decent parking brake solution.

all pro offroad has a transfer case mounted disc E-brake kit(gear drive TC).

i've had the trail gear kit for a while now that i'm happy with.

you will need to do the 1" mc but you can use the stock proportioning valve.


i still need to install my willwood proportioning valve and get a dual diaphram booster.
