so i have dana 70's under my toyota i got a set of 44 supper swompers for dam near free but they are for 15'' rims. should i run a crazy off set rim or is there a brake conversion that would let the rims clear (would be nice to run 15's for the tire availability). the 70's are off a 78 dodge fed truck and are still drum all around thanks

If they're in decent shape, your easiest option would probably be to sell them and buy some 16.5s or even bigger.

you can run chevy 3/4 ton calipers and rotors and they should fit. You might have to grind the calipers a little on a 1 ton set. You could maybe have the drums machined a little to fit 15s in the rear.

If they are drum then 15s should fit all the way around.

Im runnin a d70HD in the rear of my toyota. Its a dually rear and i converted to disk. Its real simple to do. I got the disk brackets from www.greatlakeoffroad.com They just bolt right on. I used 1977 K20 rotors and calipers for it as well.
