An easy and overlooked modification in the minitruck world is the rear disc brake conversion. What made our conversion so easy is the fact that Downey Off-Road Manufacturing-a popular company with all of you dirt junkies-makes a bolt-on kit for Toyota trucks. Now, being a Mighty Max guy, I never really thought about this conversion. However, because we converted STK TRUK to five-lugs by using a Toyota pickup rear-end, the rear-disc conversion was the next obvious step. After a quick phone call to the friendly staff at Downey, my brakes were on their way. The installation was very easy and straightforward. It took less than an hour, and the hardest part was taking off the dust plates. We definitely recommend this product to all the minitruckers out there with Toyota rear-ends. How can you argue when you see the awesome looks this product has to offer?
