Bringing this back up, working on my pinion brake setup and looking for some more pics of different setups.

Also, any reason to go to the pinion vs back of the t-case? Or shouldn't matter?

Looks like a nice setup, but seems pricey for not having a caliper with it and having to adapt it to fit.

Are you still running the factory style balancer on your driveshaft?

What about mounting a rotor too the driveshaft balancer? Or is it better to pull the yoke off and mount rotor to the pinion?

I have a DHD billet 1480 yoke. I was thinking you could drill and tap the bolt pattern in the back of the yoke and bolt the mounting flange to it.

Easiest way would be to switch to the companion flange setup from the Dodge. Then make an adapter plate to go to a rotor of your choice. That is not the cheapest way but easiest, probably the strongest also.

I don't really thing it would matter, but technically if you do it at the pinion your u joints will already be loaded up. Less shock load on release.

Fittings are 5/16". I removed my whole abs module. It was a heavy little guy, surprised me when I took it out


Ohh really, that is surprising. I didn't think it would weight anything looking at it so I was just gonna plug it. I'll prolly pull it off too.

So did you just run new lines to the front brakes of the master ? Or just like put a t to tie the front input to the abs to the direct flow straight to the front brakes?

I currently have it setup with just a line from each output in the master cylinder to each front caliper. Worked great and held fine. Changing it to add the driveline brake to help with spooling now tho, still running the auto I needed alittle bit more to hold it back.
