Description

Sterling Axle Disc Brake Conversion Kit

Complete disc brake conversion for 1984-1997 Ford Sterling SRW rear axles.

The Sterling Axle Disc Brake Conversion Kit replaces outdated drum brakes with modern disc brake performance on Ford Sterling single rear wheel (SRW) axles from 1984-1997. This complete kit eliminates common drum brake issues like fade, adjustment problems, and poor stopping power. The conversion reduces unsprung weight while delivering reliable, consistent braking for heavy trucks and off-road builds running the Sterling rear end.

This kit features heavy-duty caliper brackets designed specifically for the Sterling SRW housing. The included rotors are precision-machined for smooth braking, and the calipers provide excellent stopping power for heavy vehicles. All mounting hardware and brake pads are included for a complete bolt-on installation.

The parking brake is worth it!!

I bought this WITH the e-brake option for my heavy '93 F350 Crew Cab SRW RWD 5-Speed. With the manual tranny, I needed holding power at the boat ramp that the factory drum e-brake never provided. With a couple of YT videos, carefully reading the product page, and a couple of quick support calls with Eric, I am stoked with the upgrade! I hold in place at the boat ram easily now!! I took Eric's advice, and also purchased the Lokar EC-80-FU universal e-brake cables. It made my project much easier and more professional. I am very satisfied, and wish I had done this upgrade long ago.

Easy Peasy

Straight forward conversion. Get a set of universal E-brake cables before install. Also research how to adjust the calipers to the rotor depth. Stops on a dime now.

Put these on my 1997 F350 with no issue. Went on easy and work great. Stop so much better.

Sterling axle disc brake kit

I put this kit on my 96 crew cab f350 and it worked fine it says on here that the rotor goes behind the hub but I but it in front of the hub just like the drum goes on and had to space the bracket towards the leaf spring a little bit you want about 3/4 of a inch between the bracket and the rotor hope this helps good product would buy again
