90 rear disc conversion...

[Pacific_CB7]

Im planning to do a rear disc conversion on my 90 EX sedan, i got for 20 bucks the 9 inch brake booster with the MC attached, and also got the pair of rear calipers and rotors. Now just curious what else would i need to accomplish the conversion...any help will be appreciated...thanks guys...

Rear knuckle, hubs, e brake cables, and brake line from the caliper to the other rubber line

Ive been wondering myself, is the knuckle different or can i get a disc hub assembly and put it on my old knuckle?

You would need to change your rear hub (i don't know if that the correct word)since it will not have the hole for the caliper to be installed. You could probably fabricate something to make it work but then you need the brake lines and the ebrake cables. You might as well just go the the jy and find the whole assembly from a rear disk accord less hassel I got mine last week for $52.00 both sides and with the crossmember and swaybar.

You can just change out the rear knuckle, just have all the rear disc parts as stated

Am i able to use the stock e-brake cable since its an EX sedan? I saw that in some instances you can remove the drum brakes and install the disc brake setup on there without replacing the trailing arms off the accord with the disc brakes, would it be recommended to just get the whole setup for the rear? im new to this so its a learning process....thanks again guys....

Update...

I picked up both rear disc brakes off a 93 accord (removing the ABS of course), the hubs were relatively new and only paid $50 per side, with the rotors and all soft lines...already had the calipers since i bought the 9 inch brake booster with the new master cylinder attached for $20 and the guy threw in both rear calipers free since he didnt need them. Gonna give the conversion a go this weekend since i have this weekend off...hope things go good...any tips would be appreciated...

u can go to the junk yard i did and i got both sides for 100 bucks just dissaemble the reend its like 6 bolts on each side if i rember correctly

can i use the stock e-brake cable off the 90 EX drum brake setup into the disc brake setup? cause i didnt get the ebrake cable from the junkyard since the car is an EX...

[AccordReborn]

no, im doing the swap now and the end of the ebrake cable is way different. you must get the other ones.

thanks for the info....hows your conversion going? guess back to the junkyard i go then...im removing the arms with the knuckle cause i got the knuckle and figured since i had the EX model it would workout...guess not...oh well...appreciate the advice though....
