4th gen rear disk on 3rd gen

Oops, I got this into the 4th gen section somehow........If a mod sees this please move to third gen section, thanks.
 
in my opinion most of our runners dont need rear disk... for performance you can do a tundra front swap w/ good pads/ rotors, oem full rear drum rebuild, ss brake lines all around and a good fluid..... disk brakes all around do look good.. but most of us dont run big enough wheels to see the bling anyways.. jus my 2

I have no complaints regarding the function of my 3rd gens brakes, just wanted to know if it is possible.
 
I am running rear disc but it has been hell and still not working right. when and if I get them dialed in I'll post on what all it takes but IMO. go tundra fronts and rebuild the rear keep them maintained I at this point do not believe the benefit to be worth the time and money. how ever I have been working a lot of trial and error as there is not much info out the on 3rd gen rear disc. NOTE the abs makes this more difficult than non abs. I will be making more changes this weekend that I hope will be getting me closer .
 
With a welder, a cut off wheel, and the proper tools, anything is possible.

You'll lose your parking brake, and have to go to a t-case mounted version...

More trouble than it's worth.

4th gens have ebrake drum in the rear disk. its a cool setup.
 
i would think if the the axle shafts are the same size and the mounting flange is the same. you might be able to just press the 4th gen stuff on, but i have no idea. it would be cool if it was that simple.
