Disc brake conversions for the 406/416 axle is a big deal. IMHO, one of the issues with using the Mog axles is the ability to get brake parts at your corner NAPA store. Heck, I may have to call the guy, 'cause I have a drum brake 416 that needs brakes. If he can make brakes that will stop a fully loaded F350, using F350 parts... Man, what a deal.

It pays to have an open mind, to be sure.
