14 bolt disc brake

I want to do a disc brake conversion on my 14FF rear end. The kit i found takes 3/4 ton front disc's and calipers. My worry is i would have no E-brake. Is there any way to have a E-brake on a disc brake set up? Thanks, Matt

Re: 14 bolt disc brake

rear calipers from a 78 cadillac eldorado will work.
good luck on your build.

Dont know where you found the disc conversion kit, but www.diy4x.com has a lot of those kits. Just an fyi! Good luck on your project.

Doing one on my 78 3/4 ton. Bought the brackets from ORD and roters are the same as on the front as well as the calipers. im going to use a E brake that mounts on the tail shaft of the transfer case. mine is going together ok so far.
