ok so i have a 2000 accord 5spd coupe. i have drum brakes on rear. but i would like to go to junk yard and grab some dick brake caliper and hub and all.. just cant seem to find one that will work... does anyone know what car i can get them off of.. and what all do i need to do to convert the drums to disk.???

 

I would suggest downloading the parts diagrams (hondaautomotive.com for instance) for your car (LX?) and for EX model w/ rear disc brakes. Your's may have disc brakes as an option. You should be able to determine what additional parts are necessary.

You can use car-part.com to locate used parts near your zip code.

good luck

 

Your Accord must be a 4-cylLX? Because the EX has rear disk brakes.

You should be able to get them from a 1998-2002 EX. Find a 4-cyl EX model so it has 4-bolt hubs. I think the hubs are the same. But youmight need the rear suspension knuckles from the EX. Along with the brake rotors, calipers, hoses, & assorted fasteners.

Hondaautomotiveparts dot com has drawings, but they dont display the actual Honda part numbers. So if their part numbers are different, that might not prove anything.

 

Emergency brake actuation could be a complication. I doubt the drum emergency brake and disc brake emergency brake cables are the same, so this item may need replacing also. Sounded easy when you started, didn't it?

good luck

 

wow i really did think it was easy as ripping it off another car and putting it on mine...ok so i have some work ahead of me.. thank you very much and yes it is a 4 cyl. they didnt make the 6 cyl model in a stick shift.... thank you very much for all your help

 

It IS that easy. You just have to getALL the stuff thats different.

 

OK so i got a hub assembly from a 2000 Honda accord 4cyl EX model. the only thing is it had ABS... is that gonna make a difference for me??? i mean i don't personally have abs in my own car... the brakes should still work shouldn't they???

 

Lack of ABS should not be a problem.

good luck

 

i got the hub on and all i have to do is change the Ebrake cable THANKS SO MUCH YOU GUYS FOR ALL YOUR HELP!!!

 

Hub for an ABS car has a toothed ring behind the flange, for the magnetic wheel-sensor to read. A non-ABS car just doesnt have a sensor...

If you got the knuckles & stuff, you might have an ABS sensor. And nowhere toplug in in. Take off the sensor & give it to someone who needs it. Or just cut the wire...
