Dana 70 Chevy Dually Axle Using Single Rear Wheel Disc Brake Kit

Our disc brake conversion kits are the best conversion to eliminate drum brakes, in many cases it is less expensive to switch to disc brakes than to rebuild drum brakes. Changing from drum brakes to disc brakes is easy, and all the parts you need to complete the conversion and get rid of those heavy drum brakes are included in this kit. In the end you will have an axle that stops better, is easier to maintain, and weighs a lot less.

Chevy Dana 70 dually disc brake conversion using single rear wheels for an off road application. The D70 Dually axle is a very popular conversion due to their narrower width (64"-66") when used with only one wheel. The weight savings on a standard D70 are substantial but take a look at the drums and pads on a dually, you save well over 100lbs swapping to discs! The Chevy D70 dually axle was common in Chevy trucks from 1972 until '87 in the 1 ton range. It was stock in service trucks, flatbeds, crewcabs, motor homes and even some delivery vans (bread vans).

Important

  • This kit is for converting to standard single steel wheel minimum 15" with a maximum 4" back spacing. Does not work with dually wheels

Complete Kit Includes:

  • 1 Pair Chevy Dana 70 Dually Disc Brake Brackets
  • 2 Weld on Brake Line Tabs
  • 2 Brake Line Clips
  • 2 Brake Calipers
  • 2 Hydraulic Hoses with 10mm Banjo Bolt Fittings
  • 4 New Brake Pads
  • 2 New Rotors

Note

  • If longer studs are needed, usually dually studs are long enough or Dormin #610-301. Double check stud diameter, studs should drop freely into the rotor. DO NOT press studs into the rotor. If your hub has too large of studs you will need to drill the rotors to accept them. Be sure to have minimum 5/8" lug nut thread engagement
  • Rotor installs onto the backside of the hub!
  • Don't forget to re-bleed your brakes once you've installed your new conversion kit.
  • A Proportioning Valve is recommended, this will allow you to fine tune your front/rear stopping power bias. Your front axle should always do about 70% of the work.
  • This is ONLY for a Chevy D70 Dually, it will not fit your Ford or Dodge.
