Title: Converting brakes from drum to disc on a C4D Tree Farmer
Post by: KGTC4D on April 24, 2017, 08:17:39 PM
Just wondering if anyone has converted their drum brakes on a late 70's Tree Farmer C4D to disc? What did you use for a rotor and a caliper?  Any info would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance

I personally haven't done a C4 but I'm sure it's all the same. Just find a disc that will fit the yoke, drill some holes in it and fasten it to the yoke. Then attach the caliper somewhere and bleed the system, viola brakes! There are pics in my gallery of a Timberjack 201 that I did.
