:roll:
And the correct way to write this question on this forum:
Hi, I have a datto 1000 ute with drum brakes all round.
I am trying to find out what is the easiest disc brake conversion I can install, up front?
Thanks for any assistance.

What i found to be a really easy swap was to get the rear disc brakes off a bluebird, the calliper mounting brackets, rotors, and callipers. you still use the original hub off the 1000 and the only slight modification is to the 4 holes in the calliper mounting brackets which bolt it to the diff housing to suit the 4 holes to the 1000 stub axle where the backing plate of drum brakes bolt to. Not sure but i think you can still use the original brake line, but not sure on that as it has been a few years since doing this. You will have to run 14" wheels also.
