I buy some disc brakes from 83 nissan (I think), change the shaft ends and free axes, after them had to change directions rods that are longer for other shorter also a change for a newer model. Also change brake hoses.darren wrote:some fun toys for the patrol what are the disc brakes from that your using and how easy were they to change over wouldn't mind doing the same to my shorty

Bravo! Very nice work. The truck bed turned out excellent! I very much like the recessed NISSAN in the tail gate. Great job overall. Thank you for sharing.

Great work, congratulations!
I see that you have installed LED headlamps. Have you tested them at night? What's your opinion on them?
