I'm interested in swaping the stock calipers on a 94 Rodeo D44 for a caliper with a larger piston. Anyone have ideas of what has or might work?

Thanks-

yeah get some different axles! :) My Waggy D44's Calipers are a little bit bigger.

care to explain your thinking here on beefing up the rear brakes


as opposed to say the fronts first?

Why bigger brakes in the rear you ask? I am interested in larger rear brake calipers to more closely match my brake MC. I am swapping into my cj-8 a waggy front axle with discs, (caliper bore is something like 2"-2 1/2") and the rear d44 from a rodeo (caliper bore is something like 1 1/2"). I have a hydroboost with a 68 vette master cylinder which has a 1 1/8" bore and I am now concerned about it building enough pressure with smaller isuzu calipers in the rear. I have the system all together and I will of course test it like it is, but in case I run into low pressure in the rear brakes I am interested in alternatives.

That enough explanation? Now-Does anyone have any suggestions?

That's what adjustable proportioning valves are made for.

:flipoff: take it easy....................the shit you just posted should have been your question in the 1st place :shaking:

we're supposed to have ESP to figure out what the fawk you're wrenching on :rolleyes:


you said 94 Rodeo...which really wouldn't need to "beef" up the calipers because the MC bore is matched.
