I contacted.

Waiting back for more info for 2007 HB

If price is reasonable then I may get.

Its easily DIY.

The Kit looks to be really well made.

Its also mentioned in the comments other calipers and pads can be used.Those are not specific for this setup.

Awesome. Can't wait to hear about it. Wonder if it would make sense to order an extra set of discs and ebrake drum pads.

The drum pads dont really concern me as they will only be used when parked.Cant see those wearing down with no movement/friction.

The disc drum does concern me though.

If it does work for 2007 models then its probaly the easiest way to get disc setup plug and play.

No need for modifications like other disc conversions(Runstop)and either having to replace axle(SE) part like mentioned on other threads

First I know nothing about any of these rear brake conversions... could there be from the plant some sort of front/rear proportioning valve to handle differently the two setups available according to trim ? considering what little duty rears do I would be tempted to retain drums as I feel in our Canadian climate an enclosed system handles better salt exposure and corrosion !
