It’s a cleaner, lighter, and more effective solution compared to rebuilding old drum setups. You’ll see improved stopping power, easier maintenance, and reduced unsprung weight after the swap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe brackets are based on our 14 Bolt pattern, which also fits Eaton axles used by GM from 1965–1972. Installation requires single steel wheels (15\" with max 4\" backspacing) or larger aluminum wheels. Some Eaton hubs will require stud changes or drilling to accept rotors, especially on 1971 and older models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart Number: R2053\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with Eaton H052\/H072 axles ('65–'72)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConverts drum brakes to disc brakes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUses standard GM-style calipers (or El Dorado calipers)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrackets fit on the backside of the hub\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks with 3\/8-24\" inverted flare brake hard line fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRequires 15\" steel wheels with max 4\" backspacing or larger aluminum wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eComplete Kit Includes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) Eaton H052\/72 Axle Disc Brake Brackets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) Weld-on Brake Line Tabs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) Brake Line Clips\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) Brake Calipers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) Hydraulic Hoses with Banjo Bolt Fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(4) New Brake Pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) New Rotors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eNote\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis kit does not work with slip-on drums — rotors must mount behind the hub. Hubs from 1971 and earlier may require different studs or drilling to accept rotors. Make sure studs drop freely into the rotors — do not press them in. Ensure you have at least 5\/8\" of lug nut thread engagement after installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA proportioning valve is recommended to tune front\/rear brake bias. Remove any residual valve in the master cylinder or brake line to avoid rear brake drag or lockup. Final step: don’t forget to bleed the brakes after installation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RuffStuff Specialties","offers":[{"title":"No \/ Yes","offer_id":53429624209681,"sku":"R2053-Kit-1","price":528.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"No \/ No","offer_id":53429624242449,"sku":"R2053-Kit-2","price":484.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Yes \/ Yes","offer_id":53429624275217,"sku":"R2053-Kit-3","price":715.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Yes \/ No","offer_id":53429624307985,"sku":"R2053-Kit-4","price":671.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0967\/9667\/2273\/files\/R2053-eaton-h052-72-axle-disc-brake-conversion-kit-image-1-ruffstuff-specialties.webp?v=1776410802","url":"https:\/\/4x420-4-7.com\/products\/eaton-h052-72-axle-disc-brake-conversion-kit","provider":"4X420 Offroad","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
