revhead 1,392 Posted January 2, 2014 ive done this you can take a disc brake diff back to drum ,but why Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricktewagon 39 Posted January 2, 2014 I have an XD with drums that I am about to convert to E series diif the E series diff has a disc brake setup it will just need a good overhaul easier for me to leave the drums if they fit. I cant see why anyone would take the drums from an X series and put them onto an E series though. (im guessing thats why you are asking why) Already have front discs, drums at the back makes for better burnouts don't you reckon? Why did you do it? 1 ricktewagon reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
revhead 1,392 Posted January 2, 2014 ok i read your first post wrong ,no ,they wont fit ,must be to much wild turkey, just fit the whole e series ute or wagon diff there a better thing ,im assuming you have an xd sedan if so use everytihng e series tailshaft the lot handbrake cables etc , if your fitting the e series to the xd ute use everthing from an e series wagon as for easier line lockers and burnouts disc is better ,as you clamp off the rear rubber brake line with plastic line pliers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
