1996 Mitsubishi Eclipse Rear Drum to Rotor Conversion?

I Have A 1996 Mitsubishi Eclipse And I Was Wondering What I Need To Convert My Rear Brake Drum Into Rotor's?
Unless you did some work on the motor you don't need rear rotors for a stock 420a Neon.

I want to convert my hyundai elantra 04 rear brake drum into a rotor/disk brakes.?
Mar 26, 2007 by jobzombi | Posted in Hyundai
Does anyone know how and/or who I can contract to do it for me? I have done work on the car before so I have had some experience, but not with brakes.
If you are looking for performance brakes system, you are looking at the entire system in your car, so you need to convert/modify 4 of them at the same time. This can be costly by doing that and I'm not sure if you have already upgraded/modified your engine as of now. Otherwise I wouldn't bother the brake so much if it still has the original engine under the hood.

unless youre using this thing to race disc brakes really wont do much for you. invest in the engine then think about the brakes.

How rotor, drum brake pads, and drum wear effect hand brake ?
Aug 20, 2007 by Albert D | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs
2005 Ford Focus - 40,000 miles - had oil change and lubercation at Ford dealer - after left - thought should hav brakes checked - happen be front of Firestone - they check - say need repairs - $430 - go Ford dealer - say when ask for service of any kind, check all maintenance items - no need brake service - insist check brakes - I watch - front rotors seriously scared - front rear pads hardly worn - back rear pads worn half away - they say normal - can be another 30,000 miles before service - insist they repair - say factory rep need look - weeks pass - no rep show - have care of 30 dealers - go in, insist they fix no cost - they say turn front rotors , rear shoes normal wear - no charge - I read abut brakes internet - go highway - 60 mph - pull up handlehand brake - no slow down - try 10 mph - no slow down - my opinion when brakes wear, hand brakemust br adjlusted - what effect wear between hardly worn front pads and half worn back pads - my life in danger should hydraulics fail.
Fords have been fitted with automatic handbrake adjusters since the 70's. Sometimes they stick and all they need ais a little persuasion and lubrication. Your car is fitted with a dual braking system so in event of failure you'll have enough braking to avoid that gas tanker coming the other way.

First of all don't go 60 mph and pull up on the e-brake,that's a good way to put your life in danger! Second of all it sounds like to me you just need to go back to the dealer and ask them to adjust your e-brake. Your e-brake is not meant to stop your car while driving, it is meant to hold your car in place after you have stopped and put the car in park especially on a steep incline. A simple 5 min. adjustment should be all you need, as long as nothing is froze up or rusted.

new to english? sounds to me like you are just not easily pleased. dealerships are responsible for the work they do, or do not reccomend. firestone would not be my first choice for repairs of any kind. you should look for a non-chain repair shop, one with a good reputation. brake inspections are free. get a few estimates, then decide.

How do I change out Rear drum brake on a 2000 Dodge Neon to make them disk brakes like the front.?
Dec 23, 2007 by Neon Pro Street | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs
I have a 2000 Dodge Neon 2.0L I bought front/rear drilled and slotted rotors for. I am trying to change out the rear Drum brakes and replace it with an assembly to house calipers so I may use my matching Rotos on the back. I just got new rims and it looks very bad against the new rim.
this would be an expensive and time consuming conversion.
the brake lines, maybe master cylinder, and rear brake mounts would have to be changed, go to a junk yard and get all the parts off of a vehicle
