Rear Disk e-brake/ABS question

[bikerjosh]

Ok, those of you that have done the rear disk conversion, e-brake pro/cons?
I bought a sweet 98 4runner with the Sky Manf rear disk conversion. The PO decided against getting the calipers with e-brake compatibility. I a little leary of parking it and just using "Park" to hold it. I was always taught with auto trannys to put them in neutral, set the parking brake let them set/adjust to the weight then shift into "P". Am I being silly, found a set of calipers that ahve e-brake ability for $150.

Second question, the rear shafts were switched with crmo units so the ABS was disconnected. Should I be concerned about no ABS on the rear. My original thinking is no.
Thanks Josh:keyboard:

That is totally unsafe. I will help you out by sending you my much safer shafts and drum brakes with the e-brake (and ABS) stuff since I never use mine and you can send me your unsafe stuff and I'll take my chances.:bravo:

Hey, hey it's at your shop stop that talk. LOL Am I being silly worrying about putting the weight of the truck on the "P" tranny stop? I'm less concerned about the ABS part of it.
