    Rear disc brake options for 5x114 van

    Looking at options for converting the rear of my van to disc brakes. I have converted my van to 5x114.3 bolt pattern so the typical 11 in vented setup wont work. I would really like to use a vented rotor.

    The only ones I could think of were the large fwd cars like lhs intrepid etc. Are there any other options other than making a custom bracket?

    LH rear disc's are hardly an upgrade. There a solid rotor, no better than a drum brake.

    Will something from a charger or 300 even come close to fitting?

    Maybe they are 5x115 but being 14mm studs the holes would line up. Same 71.3mm hub.

    There is a way but it isn't going to be easy to find the parts. I have '01 caravan rear discs on the rear of my van.

    I installed Chrysler FWD car rear disc brakes on my mini but it required building adaptor plates. It took me approximately 20 hours. http://www.turbo-mopar.com/forums/sh...ht=rear%20disc
